Rob W 0 Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 The one with the Farmers Rest in it (and Noda taxis) has brought loads of memories flooding back. I was bought a beer in the Farmers by a Nobel Prize Winner in 1970 - unbelievable but true............................ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't they do half brazil/newcastle when we signed Mirandinha too? 3/4 Toon 1/4 Brazil, I think I've still got mine somewhere. They were selling sombrero's as well, even though they are fuck all to do with Brazil. Rob are you sure it wasn't you who won the Nobel Peace Prize??? Fuck Desmond Tutu, Rob deserves it more.

I was actually thinking about those hats when this shop was mentioned. I had a half Toon / half Brazil one. They were those almost square ones that were basically tea cozies.

Total knob. Didn't they sell half newcastle / half brazil shirts for a time too? Literally was a job lot of replica shirts of each which had been cut down the middle and given the sewing machine treatment rather than being specifically produced.

bobbyshinton 59 Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 Me Dad loved these. You a Walker lad Bobby? Went to East Walker school lived in Daisy Hill, Walker and Wallsend. Played in a lot of them areas the river and rail lines were like magnets to youngens. Sad to say one of my companies had the contract to lift the Swans cranes onto the boats Even the city centre looks nothing like I remember. I would have sworn some things were in certain places but the evidence is there I would be wrong. Alex I thought you were a forest hall lad.

I live in Forest Hall now, although I was brought up in Burradon. My Dad is from Walker though and my Gran lived there all her life. Weird seeing the city centre too as you say. Northumberland Street when it was part of the A1. Mad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Onion 0 Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 Some of you may know this site but just in case: Amber Online Side Gallery's website, which is fantastic. I've linked the Byker page, but there's allsorts in here. The ones from North Shields (some belters taken in The Jungle) and the fish quay include the odd pic of a couple of old villains/ne'er-do-wells I knew once upon a time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
