| Introduction | Hello my name is William Howe, my friends call me Billy. Born in 1937 in the shadow of Saint Peters Church in Wolverhampton. Now as an old Wulfrunian, I recall my time as a lad, spending most of my time around the markets with my father and grandfather and meeting lots of old characters. As with the older generation they loved to talk of their youth and I loved to listen. Through this interest I developed a love of the history of old Wolverhampton; a love that has now become a passion. I give talks and slide shows on this theme. They say every picture tells a Story, and every memory renews a joy; well my friends I invite you now to follow my Blog and see if my pictures can tell you a different story. |
