Paulus 541 Posted May 22, 2013 Report Share Posted May 22, 2013 My dad worked at Percy Andrews, then later for Andrews Engineering which was run by Percy's son, dad worked for Andrews family as; Lorry driver, machine fitter (until he was crushed under an Andrews machine) & finally Storeman, once he'd recovered from the injuries broken legs, ribs & pelvis. His name was Charlie (Wag) Thorpe, sadly gone now Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cliff Ton 10,458 Posted December 28, 2020 Report Share Posted December 28, 2020 Welcome to Nottstalgia, Beverly Radford. Paulus hasn't been here for quite a while so he probably won't see your comment, but I believe he posts on Facebook and several people here are in contact with him so your message may be passed on.

radfordred 6,284 Posted December 28, 2020 Report Share Posted December 28, 2020 Two shocking examples of quoting the previous post above from Bev & Ube (welcome to nottstalgia) but I suppose we are dealing with the older crowd being a nostalgia site? If the moderation team amend it, can also delete this post please. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
