Obviously trying to get to know people and develop a sense of community on the board. Me I am a Bramley lad. Father and Grandfather both worked at Silverwood.
Born in Thorpe Hesley, went to Thorpe Hesley Infant and Junior School. Secondary School was Park Street. Did two years at Northern College and then three years at Sheffield Hallam University as a mature student. Have lived in Thorpe Hesley,Kimberworth Park,Swallownest and now live in Meadowbank with my youngest son. Regular Miller's man home and away since 1952.
I lived on Broom Lane for most of my childhood (the end near where The Limes pub used to be). I used to play football every night on 'The Green' in Broom Valley and I loved every minute of it. I count myself most fortunate. I went to Oakwood from 1984-1989.
I was born in the big stone house that is next to the first dam at Greasbrough.
My parents then got one of the new houses when Kimberworth Park was first built (on Eilam Road) and that's where I spent my childhood, attending Redscope junior and infants schools.
I then went to Old Hall secondary school (now Winterhill), till I left in '68.
Born and Bred in Thrybergh, had a great Childhood roaming the countryside around Thrybergh, Siverwood, Ravenfield Dalton and Kilnhurst. One of my earliest memories is walking for miles with my Grandad on a regular basis, coming back with Blackberries for my Grandma to bake a pie or two.
I played plenty of footy and Cricket on the school playing fields and even had a few Sets of Tennis too!
Life growing up in the 70's was enjoyable and we made our own entertainment, I feel privileged to have had my Childhood then. Happy Days.

They grow up fast Pal thats for sure, seems like only Yesterday I was rushing to the Hospital for my first born.......
Yes indeed, time seems to pass so quickly as you get older, yet thinking back to my school days and watching the clock on the wall and thinking how slow the time was passing and wishing it was home time.
I loved the 70's, every minute of it.
There seemed so much to do that there weren't enough hours in the day to do 'em all.
