Didn't stay school dinners in primary school but when I went to Annie holgate tech grammar, dinners were brill. Roast lamb, roast spuds, veg, mint sauce - my favourite. Puddings were cornflake tart and custard or Manchester Tart that was my favourite pud Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

My daughters and some colleagues can't understand how I know the words to all the latest songs......coz they're covers ! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The south Notts buses were blue and maroon and the midland general were cream and blue - I think ! I used to sometime catch the F4 from school( Beauvale estate hucknall post office ) and get off outside my house on sandy lane. It was actually quicker to walk through the allotments and down garden road but those satchels were soooo heavy Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Used to be used a lot in hucknall but don't hear it now Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Yes it's still there, one of the lucky ones Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Anywheres safe really. Depends where you're going. Market place is fine for central Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

The inner bypass is well on its way now. It will cut so much traffic back from the high street. The old Lakes chemist at the bottom of annesley rd has gone and it cuts through titchfield street just below Wilkos, then Albert street car park and comes out through station road car park (not a lot of car parks left now). They've also knocked a couple of houses down on Woollaton street. Causing havoc with roadworks but hopefully it will all be worth it, after all it's only taken about 20 years to start it Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

The Nottingham building society is no,longer in that building, they closed it down about 5 years ago and moved everyone up to the upper parliament street branch and then they moved their head office to Huntingdon court on Mansfield rd Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Only place I wouldn't r commend is the Wine Bar but only coz it's a dump, we tend to stick to The Pilgrim, The Plough (recently refurbed) H20 (sometime have bands on) Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I moved away in 2005 and couldn't wait to come back , finally came back 2011. Would never leave again. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

certainly is - at least it was true that he was married!!!

yes HippoGirl it was Fred Knott. we thought he was iffeminate but he was a married man (i think) gosh he had the micky taken out of him - some kids were so cruel

I was born 1960 so only a year older than you. My dad was a paratrooper in the 6th airborne. He rarely spoke about the war and he was the most mild mannered man you could ever wish to meet. My mum said he used to wake in the night having had nightmares about finding dead bodies in the side of the road. Mum was, funnily enough, the disciplinarian of the family, in fact she used to scare my mates sh**less!! So he didnt make any rules in the house and I always wondered if that was why he was so laid back, because he had been subjected to the strict rules of the army for so long

ah ok, Annesley Rd had changed so much now. it used to be a busy little shopping area in the 60s and 70s but its a bit of a mess now

Farrands not a shop I remember , although I remember johns army stores. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Was the newsagents Dunkleys ? It was next to or near the stork club so on same side as carlingford Road Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Mrs Lolley, Dr Nankerville and Herr Hambukers , we did have some odd named teachers, oh and Mr Knott Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Still called 'the wine bar!' Still awful!!! They've finally started building the inner bypass making it impossible to drive around hucknall without getting stuck at some roadworks somewhere. They've knocked down the old Lakes chemist at bottom of annesley rd and it's going through titchfield street, Albert street, Woollaton street and coming out on station road. Mayhem!!

Hi sallyshoes I loved the welfare , spent many a Wednesday and Friday night there. What's DDG? Lol and I don't remember katie kookaburra , not doing very well am I . Still trying to work out who you are as we must have both been at holgate grammar at the same time Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Sallyshoes I too left holgate in 76 so I guess I know who you are.....Gizza clue Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

So it was to the left of the clock tower? I really thought it was further down Milton street. Not sure where I got that from . Never even noticed that ramp next to Irish pub. I'd still like to know what's down there now!

I vaguely remember this nightclub in Vic Centre but what's there now? I remember the entrance being on Milton street but it was down lots of steps so is there something in its place or is it just used as storage ? I'm thinking Gap is somewhere around there now

I'm not fond of these new 'made up' names. I have three grandchildren, Lewin, Eden and Seth . A good mixture of new and old there

My birth name is Drage My first married name was stringer My current married name is Allsobrook I wish I could have had just one normal name
