Homeless Kodo Mar 2021 3:59pm, 14 Mar 2021 1,452 posts	0 Homeless Kodo Murray Walker was born in & grew up in Hall Green, Birmingham. The same part of Brum that Nigel Mansell grew up in & that I lived in till I was 12. Though I knew about me living in Hall Green before today.
Homeless Kodo Mar 2021 4:03pm, 14 Mar 2021 1,453 posts	0 Homeless Kodo ....Murray grew up on the corner of Redding’s Lane and Shaftmoor Avenue, the same Shaftmoor Avenue that Jasper Carrot lived on & did a joke about. Hall Green also gave us Tony Hancock...I knew that lot too, but you may not have before today.
