Albums: Historical Images of Harringay After 1918 | 2 of 3 (F)
That's right, I remember the lorries. The cafe became a betting shop. Mrs Richards had the dairy on the other corner, and I used to get sent to the papershop or off licence for sweets.
Did you know Paul Saar at 313 St Ann's just along from the dairy? He went to Woodlands/Chestnut school. Did you know the triplets in the prefabs on Warwick: Kelvin, Jeith and Pauline! Their dad was a policeman. Keith died age 9, I think of leukaemia. I remember watching the hearse with his little white coffin. I was only 5.
Happy days playing on the street outside or hanging upside down from the fast spinning umbrella in the park.....how I was never killed/seriously injured is beyond me. All the kids my age were boys, so if I wanted to play with anyone I had to be a tomboy.
Christine Yates......referring to your comment Oct 18 2014 !! Old I know but I've only just seen it !?
I went to school (South Grove Secondary, 60-64) with the Everest brothers, was the other one Teddy ?, and Alan Springall. Blasts from the past and what fabulous tales you're recounting here.
