Norman, It was super to see it again. Lovely memories of the New Town and the Quay.

Thanks for another great video Norman and a good shot of our bedroom window in our first house after we got married at 2 St. Andrews Street. ( Outside Leslies top gate ).

yes Norman, that is the Hebburn I remember. We were rationed with Tollics in Argyle St, he was such a kindly man. The Quarry Rd pic is familiar as my Aunty Lily lived at number 14, so I remember her neighbours. Glimpses of the Colliery Board School, Mr Patrick's shop on the Low Rd....the music accompanying this wonderful video was spot on, " Long ago and far away" xx

I was hoping you would see my video Elizabeth.
Here is a recent Google Earth photo with 10, 12 & 14 Quarry Rd on it. Board regular John Mills was brought up across the road in the odd numbers.

yes, I knew those homes so well during the War years. My Auntie Lily (Dunwoodie). number 14, my Uncle John, number 12. Number 12 was originally my late grandmother's house, and when she died, Uncle John & uncle Les lived there. Their surname was Brown.
