What has happened to--------
I left Grosvenor Road in 1966, emigrating to Canada at 21years old.I now wonder what became of the White Hart Pub that was just across the Uxbridge Road, and the Wilkinsons that had a greengrocer stall there;and the rest of the Wilkinsons who had stalls at the Hole in the Wall ( which I believe was 'just around the corner' close to Sainsbury's ) and Stalls near Lido Rec/Park; most of whom lived in Shirley Gardens. One I remember well would have been Gloria Wilkinson, who would be a few years younger than I. We never dated, she must have intuitively known I was no catch.I remember reading when this site was Lammas something or the other that the Grosvenor Pub had changed hands and there was something back then on the Ealing Jazz Club that had the Rolling Stones playing Saturday night gigs, but got banned for causing fights before I went there. I was there when Manfred Mann was the Saturday Night band. They had released one record I believe it was called "I'm Cock a Hoop" or something like it. I was not one for the girls I only really dated 2 girls and of those 2, I would like any information on Jacqueline Wiseman who in 1963 was 14 living on Oaklands Road with her parents and older sister and attending St. Josephs Catholic Grammar School for Girls ( which has also disappeared). The school was run by Nuns some of whom Jacqueline did not get along with and proudly got detention from them for her misbehaviour. Any info on any of the above would be appreciated.
