Well i hope you do well Pixie,i had a few years of making celebration cakes,i have to say they were very good,but i put so much work into the sugar paste flowers that i could never have made it pay,it is a good thing to have an interest especially one that can be useful,having you'r little one you will make good use of you'r craft.Best Wishes Pixie.

I don't tend to wear clips any more Pixie,they always seem to end up on the floor,now my hair is short and grey,shush,but keep me in mind if you do decide to do the fascinators,

I have just done a bit of research on Water World today,and there is a story taken from The Independent,5th July 1993 Uk,with exactly the same kind of story,at the same place,but there is no mention of it happening at an earlier date,I will interrogate my brothers in law tomorrow and see what they come up with. unless some one recalls it tonight.

I do remember the chemical smell,but i can't remember any details about the dead fish,someone will i'm sure,i'm even more intrigued now.
Hope i didn't dream it. LOL -
I have just remembered a horrible sight in the river Trent,while walking at Stoke Bardolph some time in the late 1950s or early 1960s,The river was full of dead fish floating,I can remember the the fish ,but can't remember the cause or the date or how much of the Trent Fish were lost.Does anyone remember this,there must be some fishermen out there who would remember,It was quite devastating at the time,i often think about it,as it was such an awful sight.

Going back to #1 ,We had our family get together yesterday at The Old Spot at Daybrook and it was very nice, there was 17 of us all together and we all had different meals,our food came within 30mins,and the young lady who served us was very pleasant,far to much food though,followed by warm choc fudge cake and icecream,I have to say i loved hearing all those fab Notts Accents all round me Miducks,It was good to be on home territory,

I know what you mean RobL,when i came to West Mids i soon realized people dint know what i was saying,one of the things my hubby thought was funny was when i said to him, listen to the beds singing duck, and no one knew what babies pods were,sad to say i had to drop a lot of Notts Lingo,or Stand and explain worahweronabaaht.
Any way who would really think a Bed would sing about ducks.

One more thing, to all, if you only had one night to spend in Nottingham, where would you go? I don't want to waste my one night by going to the wrong places!
BUMP
If i had one night to spend out in Notts, I would spend it on a pub crawl,starting in Carlton, Bruno first,Windsor Castle,Blacks head,Chesterfield or Tavern and end up at The Grey Goose for a dance to the live bands and home for one of Dads home made curries,of course only if i could do it all 1960s style,In Cali Gals words where would you all go.

I'm not sure why it was said, but mam would say you little Tripe Hound.
Any one know in what circumstance it would have been said
(I was probably up to some kind of mischief)
Shippos is coming back
in Owt' Abaaht Nowt !

I just wondered if anyone can recognise the road the Shippo's Hosses are on in the photo's,it was a familia sight to me walking up Huntingdon Street on my way to work,the road looks like so many in those days with the cobbles,and i can't work out were it may be, so as to know which pubs they might be delivering to.
