Ey up, Bren. Cripes, Turf Lane is the posh bit? Nobody told me! Mind you I left there when I was four, when Mam & Dad got their first house in Shaw. That was in 1951 (sshhh!) Sandy Lane rings a bell - though it is years since I was in Royton - except that I went to the ATC's Remembrance service last year, my Uncle Harry, Mum's brother who died in a Stirling in 1943, being one of the blokes they were having the service for. There were three IIRC, who had all been members of the Squadron before the War. My Nan lived up Heyside when she moved from Turf Lane. It is quite near the ATC I think; I can remember as a kid when it was near the Glof links, and the old Spitfire was "parked" there. My dad let me sit in it once when nobody was looking! I also went to Royton Central School for a few years after it amalgamated with Shaw. Ian
