Hiya. I know the pond you mean, I'm almost certain they had one at the back of the girls school, I think they was also a footpath that Led to Netherfield, it bougt you out near the fox and hounds I think??

Does anybody remember anything about a Nursery opposite a bowling Green on Conway road carton. I'm talking approx 43 years ago. It was a big house with a long drive going up to it well it seemed long to me, I was only three?

Sorry I've not got back to you sooner, just realised you replied, just getting use to this site, ha ha Being stuck outside an aviary with a migraine sounds more like a punishment!! Ha ha Thanks for all that info, I don't remember to much about it because I was so young Tell me, was they a fish pond somewhere in the school grounds? I have vivid memories of being pulled out of one several times but not sure where.

No worries, catch ya later.

Ha ha!!! A, up matey, I'm good thanks, what dragged me to Sheffield? Your going to love this one, decided to buy a Narrow boat, spent ages looking for one i liked, finally found one in Sheffield, at the time I was working in Sheffield, decided to move on to the boat, so kept it moored their, so me and the Mrs live on it full time now and have done for about 4years, she also works in Sheffield, But I'm now working in London? Ha ha, get home every weekend though. Are you in Chesterfield now? How's things?

It is!! And I'm glad you've come on because you been to every school I went to, you know most of the people I know, and I've been trying to figure out who the Hell you are!!!! Ha ha

Up the top end Cavendish you had, the Pendreds The astills, Ron hitchcock ( scratch) and his brother kev. Chris mason, Kev nougal Alan Benner (Ben) who i think actually lived on marwood. etc etc

Cynthea lives in Netherfield!!! Youll have to say hi for me when you see her Dont tell her i use to have a right crush on her though, ha ha She had a younger sister named samantha. I can remember her dad, Donald, he had a push bike which was his pride and joy, it even had indicators on it, we use to really take the Mick out of him, ha, i think he use to work on the Buses?

Not sure about a David cross, but seems to much of a coincidence for him not to be related to Carol.

I think he's name was Carol cross your lived at the farm, The72 and 26 buses use to stop at the bottom of this drive, I can remember Leon, They was Trev Bellshaw who lived 2 doors up from the co op, Darren and Linda stanley a little further up.. Me opposite in the schol house Ian Gee opposite the Forum. Brian, Belinda, and shaun shore Steve Middleton.brothers, mick, colin, Dave and sharon atkinson Jimmy and catherine lowe Wendy fisher All the shepherds The list ir endless ha ha Funny how things suddenly come back to you.

My dad was 4, ft,6. I can remember Fred being so tall. We got chased out the orchard by some bloke who now I assume was the perv your on about, glad I was a fast runner, ha Did you know anybody up the top end of Cavendish road, or on Coningsworth?

Russia! !! That's it, your brilliant, that's been bugging me for so long. Can you remember the orchard? Nice plums, ha ha You may be about the same age as my brother, Ian kirk, don't know if you know him or not.

Sorry to hear that about Fred, that's no age I think your right about him not being an hells angel, I can remember, my dad also did the security at the Saturday night Disco, and with him only being 4ft.6 if they was any trouble, Fred was always their to sort it out. Bless him

It was sue Wilson, not Janet!!

The only Wilson I knew was Andy, had a sister i think was named Janet, not sure about that though? They lived at the top of Cavendish.

Opposite Belper avenue, they use to be a little footpath that led to the back of the golf course and on to foxhill , before the golf course was their, they were orchards and fields, have you any idea what we use to call that area? Because it's doing my nut in, haha.

Can you remember Mr Cauthorne who owned the newsagents near you, and the crofts who ran the post office next door, they had two daughters, Alice and Susan I think they were called I have so many memories of carlton girls school, as I said before, my dad was the caretaker to we lived in the school house, That house was so big inside. And I think the prefects used one of our rooms for some reason? Like a common room or something?

Your right, Stephen etches, that was the guy, his dad use to always stand at the gate smokin. And as regards the marriots, they were three different families at Frank Wheldon, two of them lived over on valley Road, just up from the Carlton hotel but neither were related My brother use to hang around with Jimmy on Cavendish road, and Fred, which I found strange at the time, because if I remember, wasn't Fred an Hells Angel as they were called then? And my Brother had a lambretta? They use to always go to the disco at the forum on a Saturday night, and always end up fighting (not with each

Piggy and babs, can you remember a guy who would've lived near you called woody, I never knew his real name but his mum use to look after me when I was little.

Didn't the Marriots live on the opposite side to the news agents? And didn't one of them die in a car crash? Can you remember Fred Dannoon Can you remember the bird aviary they had at Carlton girls, on the top floor? So many questions!! It's all coming back to me now!!! Ha ha

Just noticed the dates that somebody last posted something on here, I always was the one behind, haha.

Hi everyone, I used to live in the school house at carlton girls and Frank Wheldon schools, My farther was the cartaker at both schools I realise it's been a long time since any of you posted anything on here so it's a shot in the dark, I use to work at the Forum and play on the Alps as a kid, happy memories, I was in Newstead house when Mr Cappendale was house master. Be nice to hear from anyone who was around at that time.

Hi Wendy, is that Wendy as in Christine's sister!!!
