wormy joe
I remember him well from playing down the beach, he lived on links ave and would always be down getting worms or coal for his fire, is he still around.
Sharon Allens Grandad lived over the road, we knew him as Popeye and he always (pretty much) walked around wearing his medals. |

Sorry to hear that about Joe, how come he moved? Just hope he is at peace.
Your grandad is also another of the older Amble generation that made the place. Top respect to that man. |

My great uncle was called "cowboy". His name was william brown and was married to my grandads sister, Rachel.
They lived in Radcliffe until to demise and then to shilbottle. He was called " cowboy" as he was forever singing " the yellow rose of Texas" apparently !!!! |
