I know the name sounds daft, but I grew up in that area (in the 1950's to early 60's) and knew the Lickeys really well. As a bit of nostalgia, I took an ex-girlfriend of mine there and nine months later my son was born!Euphemism? :emoji_kissing_smiling_eyes:

ShitIt's Ron Atkinson. I saw his house years ago when I walked the hills, big place. It was in the news a few years back when burglars got in and tied his missus up, got jewellery and cash etc. She thought they were going to kill her. Its at the foot of the hills.
Okay another quiz question. Where in Coventry in the 60's did George Hudson live ?Shit
Too late that's what I would have answered! !:-o
Upstairs, Downstairs! :emoji_smile:Okay another quiz question. Where in Coventry in the 60's did George Hudson live ?
One of my sons was conceived in the Lickey Hill just outside Brum!
Euphemism? :emoji_kissing_smiling_eyes:
Looks like it'll be the Nag's Head (3 minute walk away!). Google it. It's a smashing place! (Once again, if you had read the whole thread you would see that I've already mentioned this! (Slap on the wrist time!!) (post #24)Is the Lickey Hill a euphemism? If it isn't, it should be! And I'm glad you kept the r un Brum, otherwise it would have sounded even worse!!
Have a great new adventure - and tell us the name of the new local, in case any of us are passing.
Come on Wingy what's the answer on George Hudson ?Shit
Too late that's what I would have answered! !:-o

I reckon you've told us this one before.I'm struggling here. You didn't clean his windows in Bell Green did you BBR?
He lived on Norton Hill. As did lots of City players. Us kids stood outside his house,and he came out and give us a glass of pop each and signed our books. My hero along with Rees and Humphries. We also cycled up many times to Shilton where they trained, Jimmy Hill gave me a football, I played with it on Wiseman fields until it got pinched. Wish I'd have locked it away as it would be some reminder.I reckon you've told us this one before.
Is it Ansty or Shilton.
Sure you said the kids would ask him for a kickabout ?:$
