Came across your post when looking for old photos of Speke. I lived on Central Avenue from 1950 to 1958 then moved to West Mains until 1967. I went to Stocktonwood Road and then Speke Seconday Modern (Stapleton avenue). I worked in the DOve and Olive for 5 years until 1964. I now live in Vancouver Canada since 1969 but go back occasionally and love to relive old memories.
