A local man who was a skipper of a dredger and competitive sport in the world of carrot growing. I am thinking of him tonight as he passed two years ago.
What names do you have for local characters? |

We had Cyril the Tramp where I lived as a kid.
If I didn't brush my hair my mum would say I'd turn into Cyril.
I used to be in awe of his hair (long) and his beard (massive).
And his toes used to stick out the ends of his boots. |

We had an old lady who used to stand at her front door, shouting abuse at kids as we walked past, who was called fruit bowl head because of the knitted hat she wore.
I think she enjoyed the banter
