Congratulations to Kev Stapleton on reaching the 50-year milestone, as revealed on a large banner currently displayed on the railings near Tesco roundabout.
Kev's another of the band of 'Prefab Lads' who grew up in temporary housing in Woodbine Grove during the 1950s and 1960s. And another still living in the Brigg area.
If my memory serves me correctly Kev moved the short distance across the road to live in South View after the prefabs. I was also a 'prefab lad' and wonder how many Brigg residents started off in those prefabs which were built as temporary accomodation . Can anybody also remember the name of the large dog that used to roam around there scaring us kids. At the time I thought it was a great dane but being so young it may have been a bit smaller.
