Will2017 34 Posted January 26, 2018 Report Share Posted January 26, 2018 I was born in Carlton and attended Westdale Lane Infants and Porchester Junior schools.Following Porchester I went to ACHS for two years while Rushcliffe Technical Grammar School was constructed. I played bass in a number of groups including the Tykons, The Younger Generation, two trios and Litter. After marrying I lived in West Bridgford, Carlton (again),Gedling, Westwood and Bingham. I then moved to Durham City in 1975 and to Australia in 1977. Being from Carlton I recognise and know/knew some of the people mentioned in various posts. Regards, Will 2017 PS my Uncle and Aunt owned the fish and chip shop opposite the Ritz Cinema. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Trivia-in a post by Karlton dated 7 February 2015 4th Carlton scouts are mentioned. Former Scout Leader Frank Maddison is my uncle. He was a drummer in the scout band. Gerald Maddison played a bugle. Unfortunately, Gerald passed away a few years ago. Regards, Will2017 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
