  2. Things you don't see anymore

    Talking of fray bentos, as kids in bulwell someone spread the rumor that there was a ghost train at midnight that ran along bulwell disused rail embankment,  as you enter bulwell hall park from I think Springfield road ? 

    So we dared each other to camp out and see which was the bravest to face the phantom ghost train , we said bring a fray bentos pie , and we will cook it on our camp fire,  as the fire got going some one said who brought a tin opener ? 

    We all looked at each other gormless, no tin opener so we starved that night and there was no ghost train, someone must of been telling porkies !!!!

    We had one a few years ago but it was badly damaged when stored in our underground garage in S of France which was then flooded during a particularly bad storm.  I now rely on a free app called Skyview Lite, it was that app that told me which planets I was seeing last week.  On the second pic that CT posted for me it showed Jupiter, Venus and Moon from top to bottom.  It was all change the next night (left hand pic) 

    If I point the phone to the floor it shows the stars in Oz! 

    Thanks Lizzie I will check out that app for looking at stars !

    Judging by the Y'S, this was taken when Tiffanys was there.

     

    Is that the door to Intercon, Tiffanys, Zhivagos to the left of the newsagent window?

    What is that grand looking brick red walled building ? Looks slightly out of place.
