The 60s and 70s

Born in Hulme, 1949 in the old terrace housing, no inside bog or bathroom. Moved up market to Moss Side in 59; f..king freezing in winter with no central heating, walked to Whaley Range for school in ALL weathers. The only good bit of that time was when I left school and started going to all the clubs in the 60’s. Brilliant they were, Twisted Wheel, Rowntree Sound, Takis, Stax, all nighters, all dayers. Piccadilly at 2am Sunday morning was busier than 2pm Saturday.

No thanks, better of now.
 
It was funny, I had a little Saturday job on Ashton market, a Sunday job at Stamford Park boating lake, an after school job with Initial towel delivery bloke and a morning paper round.
I left school with a traineeship and actually earned less.
