Seamus Carver had lived next door to Andrew Smith for
about two years before they met. ‘Seamus used to go to work
early in the morning and come home in the afternoon, and
I used to work nights at the factory,’ said Andrew. ‘We were
never home at the same time. He worked on Saturdays and
Sundays, and had Tuesdays and Wednesdays off. We never
had a good look at each other.’ But when both men retired
in the same year, their schedules changed. ‘We’d both been
out to the cinema one night, and we came home at the same
time and met in front of our houses.’
‘Right away, Seamus asked me if I’d gone to school at Oak
Park Primary School in York. I said that I had, and then I
understood. He and I had known each other for a year or two
when we were young kids, like maybe six. And amazingly, we
still remembered each other!’ Both Seamus and Andrew said
their families had moved away from York when they were
young. What they hadn’t realised was that both families had
moved to Bristol, and both men had been living there ever
since.
