Hi Loppylugs,Sorry i have no information on Cannon Watson as i Moved from Notts on my Wedding Day 1966 and i only visit the church for Weddings and Funerals,i too would be interested to know about him,perhaps someone will come up with some news.

Thanks Piggy and Babs for letting me know you had heard of a doll factory or hospital,i am going to try to find more information about it ,there was always bits of dolls if i remember right but it was such a long time ago i was beginning to doubt my memory.

Thanks for the map and photo,they are very interesting,i wondered if anyone knows if there could have been any bombings there in the war,the building looks to good to have become derelict so quickly, we used to play there approximately 1955,i know Gedling church had some damage in the war because Cannon Watson pointed it out to us when we married there in 1966 so there is a chance that the house too could have been hit.

I was brought up in Gedling village on Hardys Drive 1940/50s and i have always wanted to know what the building would have been at the bottom of Westdale Lane on the corner of Main road,it was derilict and we local kids would play in the remains of the garden,for some reason mam referred to it as the doll factory,does anyone have any old photos of that area,sorry if i have asked about this before.

Hiya Fch782c,Sorry to hear you have been ill,Stroke is very frightening and it happens without warning,It happened to me in 2005 but i have not been left with any problems from it.I had a scare recently but it has turned out to be something else ,I hope you feel better soon and keep well in the future,and hope those nurses keep smiling for you.

If we were bieng cheeky or just too noisy Dad would say Da yere yo shut afe on it, meaning Do you hear you shut half of it, in other words, Be Quite.

Had two good days so i'm feeling optimistic again, thank you for your good wishes.

Would be nice to meet up,we will have to see if we can arrange to stay over when you have one of your get togethers.

Well done LizzieM, Im afraid i needed a bit of help,but we got there in the end.

That sounds about right,my 12yr old granddaughter usually sorts things out for me if they are to complicated,

Done it! Don't show the cops!

Thankyou,my son is calling in about an hour,hope to have my mug on profile shortly.

Ayup, Help, i don't even know how to get my photo from my phone,any clues, will be appreciated,

Hiya everyone,Any idea why when surprised my mum would say, Well I'L go to the foot of our stairs, I have always known the saying but never really thought about the connection.

Me too, LizzieM .Going to have a go tomorrow

Perhaps one mum made up,always followed by a chorus of not me mum honest,such angelic little faces NOT.

Just remembered something mum would say if someone had a touch of wind,Who let Polly out of prison,anyone know where that saying originated.or was it one she made up herself

We had a similar area and if you want the plants to creep along the fence you could try a Passion Flower which has quite an unusual flower or Jasmine and Honeysuckle we had success with all of these,may take a while to reach their best.

That explains it, our garden is quite shaded and wet,thanks for the tips,i thought perhaps i had over crowded the plants with Grape Hyasinths,I will try them on their own next year.

What a lovely display of colour you have in your garden,especially the Pansies,for some reason i dont have success with them,they always seem to spindley,any tips.Travelling to Pinxton from WestMidlands on A50 and M1 yesterday i saw lots of cowslips and primroses on the embankments,i always love the wild flowers they take me back to my childhood walking over Greenies fields up to the woods where there were wild Daffs,Bluebells,and Violets,And snowdrops.All very nice so long as they stay wild and dont pop up in the middle of the garden LoL.
