The Thornaby Of The 39's Through The 50's

A Memory of Thornaby-on-Tees.

It's a long story, trying to relate to my childhood days living above the "Meadow Dairy" then living at No.2 Caledonia St. Who said they were the bad old days, never been happier in my life, what with the battles against the "new" St. gangs, and the mischief we got up to, I could write here for ever, but, maybe later if your interested, suffice to say I'll be remembered by a few, and as for the neighbours, they were great, the Chamneys, the Dinsdales, the Comiskeys, the Moody's, Ronnie Butler, a good friend of mine, Dessie Hurst, another good friend, and a good footballer, so sad to lose him at such an early age, and the lovely, Flossy Higgins, who I fell in love with many times, ha, ha, enough for now.
