This is fabulous! My maiden name is Gay and my Mum was a Rennison from down Hawthorne Ave. Hearing about all the characters is wonderful as I know my parents and Grandparents were among them at the time. I now live by the sea in Australia, a million miles from Hessle Road. Not sure why this popped up on my TH-cam feed but I'm glad it did! Thanks for posting.
