With Andy (fishyfanny) starting a thread about local history I thought it would be a good idea to see where us Town fans were born and the street we grew up on?

I was born in Grimsby January 1970 and my first street was Duke street until 1975

What was yours?


Grimsby and proud!

I was born in 1948 and although we lived in Riby we soon moved to a new posh house in Wroxham Ave

A lot of my old school friends from Western lived in that area Pete.

We moved on to Carnforth Crescent from Duke street then to Bradley park estate (around 1980)

We moved to Middlesbough when I was 5 my dads brother got him a job in his factory My dad did not like it so we moved back to Cleethorpes Normandy Rd when I was 7 and I stayed in Grimsby ./ Cleethorpes until we moved to Suffolk.
