Yes, my Auntie (really mum's friend) said Shipman had a lovely bedside manner, she loved him!
Did you all used to visit the markets - Ashton, Stockport, Oldham, Bury...
We also did the parks in the holidays - Lyme Park, Stamford Park, Cheethams Park, Heaton Park...
And the Working Mens Clubs - they always had great Christmas Parties for kids when we were little!
