By: Alan Spearman - 23rd August 2009 (at 12:17PM)The funeral directors and his tomotoes in the window, it was a standing joke with us kid's that he used to put the ashes of dead people on them as fertilizer. This is where Ralph Erskine the architect of the dreaded Byker wall set up his office. Is'nt it Strange we had one foreign person Sirrka Llissa preserving our history in photo's and another Ralph destroying it. I know who the vast majority preffered. The smiling Finnish girl with the long hair and camera.
