I was born just off Alexandra Road, and have lived in Village Terrace, Brudenell Road, Alexandra Road, the Woddlseys & The Harolds but I have no clue where The Lumleys are.

Care to enlighten me?

The Lumleys are the terraces below the Allotments at HQ. The ones to the right as you walk over the bridge away from HQ. My aunt lived in Lumley walk and a grand chip shop at the bottom of her street.

I always though McLaren was posh and lived in the Stanmores.

Rosemount Fisheries?

If so, it was indeed a grand chippy. They did the best fish I've ever had.

It's now............(wait for it)............STUDENT HOUSING!

My God!

You've just brought back a dream I had about 45 years ago about getting lost around there.

As I close my eyes now, I can recall many of the details of that dream.

The brain's a strange thing, innit?

But, tbh, I think mine needs a clearout. I need the room.

Yep that chippie was on the corner of our street, Mrs Marshmellow worked there.













I don't think that was her real name but she reminded me and my brother of a marshmellow when we were very young.













No, she didn't have bits of coconut stuck to her face, but she was round and fluffy.

Indeed it is Silver Royd Hill in Wortley ... The Admiral spent some of his formative years right where the woman and her washing are in the picture.

The houses on the left had gone by the time I got there ....

He's right you know, carry on over the little bridge past the Supporters Club and turn sharp left just over the bridge .... Past the allotments, the first set of houses out come to on the right are the Lumleys.

It's where LP and I first used to park our cars on match days ....

We had a Mr Cole as Deputy Head. I wonder if it's the same bloke? He had an accent from somewhere in the north east, IIRC. He left the same day as my year, and the headmeaster (Mr Thornton, artist of Alfie Apple fame).'"


Went to school with his daughter .... In fact, he lives very close to the old 'Admiralty Building' in Leeds, where I used to live. icon_wink.gif

The first one you come to is Lumley Road - thats where we lived when I was extremely young, those back-to-back streets going down Beechwood Crescent were where I rode the range on my pretend horse with my pardners looking for "injuns" and sometimes getting shot and dying heroically.


I could be cruel and say that it all happens in real life around there now, but I won't.

Away fans have been known to park down there and think "I know where the car is, it's on Beechwood something".

I know one home fan who did the same thing years ago and spent 20 minutes wandering around Beechwood this, Beechwood that, Beechwood something-else thinking his car had been stolen. icon_surprised.gifops:
