Description

Brummie Kid is a fascinating recollection of the experience of growing up in the slums of Nechells and Aston.

All the harshness of daily life is remembered here by local author Graham Twist.

Despite hard living conditions and a distinct lack of money, a strong community spirit prevailed and families and neighbourhoods were close-knit.

In these tough times you hoped nobody noticed you going to the 'pop shop' to pawn precious valuables, siphoning petrol from cars under the nose of the local bobby, or sneaking into the flicks without paying – though everyone was more or less in the same boat.

Here are more funny, heart-warming stories from the backstreets of Birmingham which are sure to rekindle old memories.
