Little did I know when I was 18 (31 years ago) and worked behind the bar in the Albion pub that the 'old chap' in the corner drinking bottled Ginness was a renowned artist. If I did I would have made sure to have kept hold of all the little drawings he made of the regulars which were placed on the wall behind the bar.<BR/>There's a fine painting of his in the town hall, it is on the wall to the left of the main staircase and is well worth a look and of course a picture.<BR/>Hyde as been blessed with a number of fine artists and poets. I am proud to say I knew Trevor Grimeshaw who died a sad death in his home by fire. I am sure that one day the highly collectable artist will have a blue plaque on the outside of his past home.Tomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04167792394551286975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25658231.post-60599778095970062742007-07-20T17:49:00.000+01:002007-07-20T17:49:00.000+01:00The blue circle with the white rectangle is a nice...The blue circle with the white rectangle is a nice look!Nevahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04601316661181297640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25658231.post-67485972784353042012007-07-20T10:04:00.000+01:002007-07-20T10:04:00.000+01:00I thought this was Ernest before I clicked.
