    Ray's car breaker yard was in Pheonix street.
    I worked on his extension.
    Down his place.
    He has the biggest carp pool in a garden I've ever seen.
    Great great bloke RAY 😊

    A lot of effort has gone into that, gives a bit of cheer to the football community

    Hi Phil. I was born in Swan Village, 12 John Street in 1969. Great memories. We moved when I was about 10 years old. I'm 54 now. My older brothers went to George Salter high school, I went to Hilltop. John Street is just off Phoenix Street.

      Hope these films help to relive some of those memories, its what they are all about really. Thanks also regarding John Street. I meant to say Bilhay Street as I came down Dudley St

    Our Mom used to work at the Swan pub. Joyce was the land lady.

      There ought to have been someway to have preserved the Swan instead of bulldozing it and replacing it with a petrol station. Joyce Partridge was indeed the landlady from 1968-1985. Mr Singh took over and was the final licensee. Great memories, many thanks

    if you had walked another couple of houses up Phoenix St to 25, that was my Nans house back in the day, 50-60 years ago. Thanks. Neal in Australia.

      Many thanks Neale for the comments Here is a link to an earlier film I made about the gas works at Swan Village and I end the film taking a much longer walk up Phoenix Street and end at The now defunct pub The George. Check it out and hopefully you may see the house in question. All the best czcams.com/video/6YXfPi5c_A8/video.html

    I wished things hadn't changed, when we were kids nothing seemed to change, now everything goes to fast, it's like a concrete jungle or a car park😢
