[Rhymes from our childhood]

Beans beans there good for your heart,the more yer eat the more yer fart,the more yer fart the better you feel,so lets av beans for every meal.

[Rhymes from our childhood]

We all chanted rhymes with our friends as kids, I wonder if they're still around? Here's one I remember.

Hark, hark the dogs do bark

The beggars are coming to town

Some in rags and some in bags

And some in a velvet gown

Can you move mine to here or should i type it again.

[Things our parents used to say]

Lynnie, that is such a coincidence you putting that rhyme on here [which we also used to say as kids] because I was just coming on line to start a new thread about old rhymes.

Im sure some more will come to me that i can add down,Funny cause i havent thought of that rhyme for years.it just came to me !

[How to make money?]

Tried Ebay, but I still aint rich?

Depends what yer selling on ebay mate!,i went round mi family and collected all their scrap gold like broken necklaces,odd earrings and broken rings,went and bought some scales from argos(then took um back) weighed it in there was about 50 grams and i caned 180 quid,not bad to say it was all shite and none of it was wearable. GET RAIDING THEM JEWELLERY BOXES! LOL.

Hi all you lot from aspley

I remember Amesbury circus we used to play on the park there, and the park keeper used to chase us if we got up to no good. Can anyone remember playing in Broxtowe woods? Katyjay you used live across the road from my bridesmaid Jenny you also lived next door to my husbands mate Tony Cussons. We also got married at Cinderhill church in september 1968.can also remember the vicar that should have married us but was killed a few weeks before. I know you from school but you left at Christmas I left the next summer. My husband lived in Harpenden Square. Since joining Nottsalgia you realise what a small world this is, I have also found someone else I used to know. namely Craig.
