A Happy and Healthy New year to the Threetowners posters and families from "cowboy country" in the heart of B.C.

Happy birthday Penny tray! Many Happy returns.
Remember you and your family well from my Rowanside Terrace days.

7 for me today

Interesting point about babies being born at home.
I was born at home at 160 Glasgow St. in 1942 as was my younger brother in 1946.
Wonder how many other of our contributing Threetowners were born at home.

8 this time for me

Happy birthday Hughie and many more.

Thank you all for your good wishes.

Robbie

Have a great birthday and Many Happy Returns.

Wonder where the Crown was located. Is it possible it was the same location as the Lyric?

PT, I remember the day Mrs. OHaire lost her husband in that explosion. Watching the long black car slowly drive up Rowanside Terrace and stopping outside her door, we all knew what that meant. We lived across the street at # 8 and had heard the explosion earlier in the day when we were up the Cannon...

Thanks for posting that story. Found it very interesting and enlightening as I had no idea any bombs had fallen on ICI.
I had heard that a dummy factory had been constructed near Montfode farm to try and mislead the German bombers.

What enemy action happened at ICI during the war.
Was it bombed?
