  1. A potted History

    in Owt' Abaaht Nowt !

    :rolleyes: Thought that I would just tell you a little bit about myself, nothing exciting......Born in 1947 lived in Melton St, just off London Rd near Glebe St and Rhyhill Street opposite the canal in The Meadows.

    Went to Arkwright infants and junior school and then on to Trent Bridge school for girls, will always remember the school took a group of us to France, Belgium, and Switzerland it cost some thing stupid like £20 the teachers collected bits of saving from us every week that must have taken forever and a day to collect.

    Left school in 1962 went to the Nottingham Art College, then got a job window dressing in retail for many years, met my husband in The Salation Pub married in 1969 (love at first sight) so he tells me.....tells me any thing. Had a son, and now have two wonderful grandchildren.

    I have lived out here near Eastwood for 34yrs....not very exciting but lots of memories (some I would not be allowed to print) :)

    Kiss Hi There,

    Does any one out there remembers the Y.M.C.A. dances on a Saturday? in the mid 60s I seem to recall that they were on at a Sat mornings or maybe around the lunch time.

    They had live groups and then records to follow (not called disco's in those days)

    with just soft drinks and coffee. We loved every minute thet we were there and had some great times....just like "The Dancing Slipper" West Bridgeford on Central Lane, lots of great groups there on a Fri night e.g "The JayBirds"......Any one remember at all???
