Subject: Re-Cambridge Road

I remember the Brookes Family,and you brought back many memories,we lived next door to Alma, she lived "up steps" from your grand parents, that was her back door, her front door was on Carter Road,bang opposite where "Chopper" lived, can you remember Chopper selling fish outside the Waggon up Heeley Green? If you wanted to buy you had to knock on the pub window, he was a real comic.His house was at the bottom of the "little hill" which was Carter Place and Mrs Maltby's shop was on the other corner of Carter Place were we played on the railings. I thought Mr and Mrs Read lived next to the Brookes house on Cambridge Road, but I also think the Mountain family were related to the Reads,They all were regulars at the Salvation Army.The other side of you grandparents house was Mr& Mrs Parelli, he was called "Mickie"? and his wife was Mazzie? does anyone remember going carolling to there house? when you'd sung your Carol outside, he'd ask you in to sing again and when you'd sung, he'd show you a stuffed singing bird in a cage and he had a wall clock that he'd dressed up with a Santa's Face.Jim's chippy was opposite and Deans shop was just below
