Re: Darby in Deepest Deutschland
Yo Darby and Mike West.The way things are going we will all have to have a get together.Accrington Stanley Revival, German Branch.Live in Dorfen 84405 look it up on the map.Send me an instant message with your tel.Nr. will get in touch.Not so far away from Sachsen myself.Am of the same opinion.Germany is ok. but the people of Accy are special.And yes it is bloody expensive to move over here but a lot cheaper than buying.

Re: Darby in Deepest Deutschland
[quote author=mez link=board=new;num=1070963019;start=0#14 date=12/13/03 at 15:44:08]hi darby, i used to live in oswald st, church in the fifties, my last name is clarkson, i have an older brother & one younger than me , that is my maiden name , do you remember billy fenton, the mcgouchlin brothers, mavis& kieth livesey, barbara & anne johnson, sandra long, if so you may remember me & my brother bernard we used to play on t tampits to well good luck & this is a brill & friendly site not been on long myself c/y [smiley=bye2.gif]from mary [/quote]
Mavis and Keith Livesey I can remember (Mavis always seemed to give me a thump - maybe I was a bad'un). Billy Fenton was my best mate when I went to Church Kirk school. Haven't seen him for more than 25 years. I think I remember your brother Bernard....yes it's coming back bit by bit. I was only 18 months old when we moved to Oswald Street from Burnley and we moved to 25 Henry Street when I was 4(Fred Kirkham bought the house from us when we moved to India Street about 1951/2). My best friend was Fred Parkinson... Freddy Twamtwacks (we use to go and sit at the corner of Church Commercial and watch the trams). Freddy had a slight lisp and could only call them Twams on't Twacks. He had a sister called Brenda who I saw about 12 years ago. She told me that Fred had died....Shame ....he was a nice lad. I aim to go in the Tanpits (now the Plough I believe) when I come over next weekend. But I've got to go to the Rovers with my eldest lad, and then pick-up the Grandchildren from Glasgow on Sunday, So it'll have to be Monday or Tuesday. Still I look forwards to walking round Church and Ossy, I always seem to meet somebody I know. It's a very friendly site..but what else would you expect from Accy, Ossy, and Church folks. |
