Sad news indeed. Mrs J2J and I were only talking to her back in the summer. Nice lady.

I heard she was brought up in Llansamlet.
Some lovely stories shared about her on TV today.

I heard she was brought up in Llansamlet.

Slightly related, Is Llansamlet the area from the Halfway House pub to the Jersey Arms ?
Used to spend my weekends and school holidays near to where Harry Rhys's shop used to be. I think the Two Ronnie's used that shop for the 4 candles sketch.

She was indeed brought up in
Llansamalet, and I believed she lived with her grandmother on Peniel Green Road, just up from the Library on the cross. Coincidentally her father owned the land on which Cwm cottages were built, no longer there, but on the site of the current Texaco garage, and where my wifes grandparents and mother used to live.
