Unsure if it worth it or not. What i DONT want to see is a generic spanish/german/italian built train. I would like to see bombardier build a complete brand new design, something orginal.

Im moving to Mablethorpe in August... Really not looking forward to, as i dont want to leave Carlton and Nottingham but needs must apparently. Is there anyone else on this forum from the Mablethorpe/Skegness area?

My grandad always told me a story, In 1942 he was a 12 year old living on Colwick Road, One day, him, his brother Dennis and there mates were playing in the road when a german airplane, think he said " Messerschmidt" ? probably spelt it wrong, came down colwick road and started shooting up the road. Everybody walking had to dive for cover as quick as they could. Another time during the Nottingham Blitz, His family were taking shelter during the big air raid of May, when an incendiary bomb came thought the roof and landed in the bathroom (they had a posh house for the 40's) the bomb didn't go

Very good

A friend of mine is carrying the torch from edwinstow to Mansfield i think tomorrow ( or today seeing as its 2:05am). Adam Crump, He should be on East Midlands Today at somepoint before friday.

Hiya everyone. I suffer from weak lower back muscles. I bent down to give my great aunty a cuddle last week and my back went on me yet again. Its right across my lower back and around the hips, Ive just started a new job and dont really want to take time off. Im taking high dose co-codomol. Is there any advice from anyone else in here who has suffered the same to help me out????

The Godfrey House on Dr Parks Corner was in my family, that was a massive house untill its shameful demolition in the mid 90's But i do remember the original Park House. Least they kept the stained glass from the windows.

Carlton House is still there, and very much lived it. The owners told me few days ago they opened the basement as it had been sealed somepoint in the 50's. What they found was amazing! Row among ow of stone pews which would suggest it must of been used as a temporary church at somepoint before any of the churches were built in Carlton. The house was built in the 1720's.

Thats amazing! Thanks, I knew there was cottages at the top, My dad said he used to play in the ruins of them as a kid in the very early 60's

Have you got a map showing Mount Pleasant, Carlton before 1960?
