Hello everyone,
I remember so well Brooklyn tech, went there day release for approx ' 4-5 I remember well all those tutors named for the Carpentry and Joinery course ( 1972 - 1978 ). The company i worked for as an apprentice was Maddocks and Walford there builders yard was on the Tyburn Road.
Jimmy Cathery, Yannick Beck, Bronick Beck all went to the same college as apprentices with Maddock and Walford. ( but started perhaps 4 years before myself ) Vince Paris was my mentor at Maddocks and Walford. One of my site foremen was Jack Hog.
Also can not forget my best man Alan Gales, use to live at No. 10 Park Drive. Handsworth i think !! All the ame day release and class as myself. Oh and Sephen Cummings who hailed from Chelmsley Wood.
Worked all over birmingham on Public schools, churches, Banks etc,etc.
Kindest regards from Abroad
