BullwoolGel

Boris was a mate of my Mam and Dad's in the 60's. My Mam once went on a date with him, before his tramp days, I hasten to add. He really was a Bulwell legend... we were on holiday once in Portugal and even heard some people talking about him on the beach!!! Can anyone remember Spike the other famous Bulwell tramp??

My Dad's mam always used to say "Stop Queedlin" if you were balancing on 2 legs of the chair

If someone only had one front tooth, My Mamma always said they had a "pickled onion chaser"

My Mamma (still going strong at 95) has a wealth of these old saying. Her Dad was from 'Ilson and her Mam from Manchester, and she's lived in Bulwool all her life so they are a bit of a crazy mix........
