No, was on Ashton road East where there was a group of shops either side of the road. The Cotton Tree pub and The Star Inn (rip) were near there.Was that on Oldham rd? We called him Dave the Rave. Gave a great Kevin Keegan cut.

I wonder if he moved there after I left. Friends of ours ran the cotton tree.No, was on Ashton road East where there was a group of shops either side of the road. The Cotton Tree pub and The Star Inn (rip) were near there.
Wasnt Altrincham area was it?Think a few barbers might have been at it, my dad tells a story of the same but it wasn't in the area of Manchester you're mentioning. Can't remember the name he said, Andre comes to mind but if it wasn't that then it was definitely a Mediterranean name of some sort.

Grundy's, now that brings back memories. He shaved my head when I had nits as a seven year old. 9My old fellow always had his hair cut by him. Used to walk past his shop everyday on my way to Wright Robby.Is it still open?
Cannot say I have ever been to failsworth bar the pole twice, so never experienced your barber.
We had a great barber at the top of my street in Abbey Hey, Roy Grundys, was a lovely fella and cut generations of peoples hair in the area, mamy were lost when hos shop finay closed (he had retired and his business partner kept it going for a while).
Can say none of that went on in Grundys, good honest gent and a treasure to the community, city fan too
There was definitely a barbers up near the market called Andres, no idea if he was a wrong un though.

Facing Robinsons my mum used to work in there never got free cakes though tight fuckers ran that place.
I went in Dave's once when I was about 7 or 8 asked for a trim and got a number 1 all over, cant remember him rubbing his cock and balls on me though might be my memory or I might have been an ugly kid
I should hope not, a friendly fondle but biting them!!!!I used to have my hair cut by a nice looking blonde woman. She would press her boobs against me a few times, but I didn’t bite. Too close to home!
