City1970 Posted December 23, 2013 Report Share Posted December 23, 2013 Tins, Goater, Garland, Bell and many others lived in Nailsea. Garland, however, did originally hail from the flats behind the Dolman I believe Garland is a Southville lad I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Philly The Kid Posted December 23, 2013 Report Share Posted December 23, 2013 Kevin Mabbutt had a penthouse apartment at Druids Woods, Sneyd park, I seem to remember he had a bright coloured Lotus (I think) with "Striker" emblazoned down the side.... From what I remember, he led the lifestyle whereas his brother was much more of a homely lad who shied away from the limelight. It was along time ago mind you!!
