Not a bad start to the day really. Took 'er indoors for a cataract op this morning after two cancellations. Knew it were a bummer to get to the hospital, so up at 6.00am and left home at 6.45. No traffic so got there at 7.10, (they don't start till 8.00). Tina was first, due to her latex allergy, then it was drops in and away she goes. I sat there with me free coffee waiting. She came out, patch on, looking like a space pirate, with a see-through cover. Out and finished by about 5 past 9.
Don't know what I expected but she came out chirpy and smiling, after being all het up for the last couple of days,(fear of the unknown). Then it's back on 25th July for check up. All is well. B.
What's it like being married to a space pirate, glad all went well , not as scary as your wife imagined after all , thats great !

@MRS B the word snap little known down south i reckon, as one day i was walking to work in the middle of winter in Portsmouth hampshire , and i dint have any gloves on so decided to put my snap box under me jumper.
All of a sudden a police car swerved to an halt and started firing questions at me , apparently they'd been a robbery of a coloured television,
he said grumpily what's up your jumper lad ? I said me snap , he thought i was talking about drugs until i showed him my snap box,
he asked me if I'd seen anyone else in the area , i said yeah they was a guy with a mask on and a stripy jumper , carry a bag that said loot on it !!

Mr R H Leaman, was our Technical drawing teacher until he retired I can't remember when but during my time at Player. Also, Nobby Auckland, Mr Cranswick, Mr Hammond (Smoked in the storeroom) Mr Messenger was Deputy Headmaster, Mr Mills, short bloke with thick black rimmed specs, looked like Joe 90, Mr Terry in Maths who could wheel round and hit you with a piece of chalk or a board rubber without having to aim...and used to smoke his stick of chalk when he wasn't throwing it at you...and Mr Towle in RE...amazing...
Lol joe 90 !!!!!!!

Finally I find something about player school and the thread runs out in November 2011...typical....In case anyone comes back and is interested I was there at Player 'Grammar' from 1970 to 1975 when it became a comprehensive, I believe I was actually in the 'Grammar' stream of Player Bilateral school as it was known at the time...I think it is some sort of community centre now....I can't find any pictures or anything much about Player school on the Web its like it didn't exist.....
Gilly i attended there not sure what year , but Chelsea were playing Leeds united in the cup final, i live on denewood crescent , i i used to play footie up the road , king george or henry playing field or something like that
One day i did a sliding tackle and landed on a piece of broken glass,it cut my knee open ,
Anyway morning my dad stuck a plaster on it , and off i went to school , got sent to the nurse with blood running down my leg and soaking the sock with blood.
I remember a big fat kid aptly named Timothy large , who wanted to fight me at playtime , i was only a little shrimp back then.
Left bilborough and settle in Bulwell hall and then attended Alderman.w.derbyshire secondary.

@Jill Sparrow youve got me singing Kate bush now , i have to ruffle me hair up for maximum effect though !!

@Cliff Ton i remember my grandmother who lived in carrington, had one of those whistling kettles , and the teapot cosy on the table , we'd have tea , with sliced bread with butter on it , and peach in carnation milk , lovely memories !
She'd have a black beret which she used to wear for church , i would put it on and look in her mirror making out i was a commando , using her hairbrush as a rifle !!

The song i remember most was the Four tops singing Bernadette, me an my brother were sitting on the kerb in old st ann , making tar bombs with the tar in the road bubbling up in the summer heat of the sixties , we'd get a box a matches ,take a match and dip it in the tar and light it with another match , and i always remember the four tops blaring out some neighbors transistor radio !

Haven't got Face book , is Foot note any good ?
Talking of ailments , i remember one mothers day ,we took our dear old mam out for lunch, she wasn't too brilliant on her feet so we put her in a wheelchair, it might of well been a wheelbarrow as to the red faces she caused us ,
We were trying to get her into the pub with no ramp , the bar staff helped us in and seated us at a table , where my mam got out the wheelchair briskly as you like , and said im am going to the ladies , everyone was embarrassed after all the huffing and puffing trying to get the chair into the pub doorway !

Some day my prints will come. 1 shilling and elevenpence halfpenny, a bit steep.

Farthings...
I remember as a very small kid in the early fifties getting a small bottle of orange off the milkman for a farthing...about the only thing left that you could spend one on.
One farthing...4 to the penny...240 pennies to the pound...So thats 960 bottles of orange for a quid....Not bad eh???
That orange from the milkman was lovely stuff , quite refreshing !

I suppose not having the time to read through posts can be frustrating , i am the opposite i am 2nd year into retirement after working for most of my life ,apart from afew in between job moments, infact ive got too much time on my hand ,
Sitting in my little bamboo hut in the Philippines as we speak , there was a massive loud wallop on the roof a minute ago , as a coconut fell from a tree and landed on the roof, when you look at the blue sky and coconut trees you could think you were in a bounty bar advert without getting paid for it !
But if people are really interested in reading all the posts they should start at the beginning and just catch up, someone's gone and commented that if they see someone posted two many times they don't bother to read at all, well that's a great shame as there are some gems to read in here .
I didn't suggest that you were a Shark Margie, sorry if you got that impression !

Milk and wine we had both as school children of st augustine will remember, warm milk dished out by the nuns, then we'd be carted off down the road two by two to take Holy communion, they'd pop a round rice disc in your mouth and give you a drop of wine , the vino taste good so i sneak back in the queue to have another drink , until the priest cottoned on .
Then I'd totter off back to class with the occasional hic !!
