Morning OZ what are we going to do with the Red Men do you think (Now this might cause folk to be upset) what if we join Forest and Notts C together would we have a good team? Now I can hear folk saying ""Wash your mouth out with soap girl." The name could be "Forest County"

Hi Michace29 A very warm welcome from me to you. I am sure some member will have some information about what you asking. Enjoy the site and keep posting, xx

Talking of winter 1947 can any one remember when Mablethorpe on the Lincolnshire coast had floods. around 1954/55/56 the sea came quite a way in. We were there on holiday the week before it happened. When we went to the coast in the 70s to look at property we went to have a look at a house in Mablethorpe the owner pointed out that the line around the living room was were the water had come up to when the sea flooded.

Its an age thing BK All I know is what I have been told, my memory can only remember bits. What did I do yesterday don't know Can't remember PS Can't remember robbing that bank? Shall we share???

Winter 1947 I remember it well, my father drove down in his lorry all the way from Scotland. Grandma Selina went running out to great him. Walter you have a beautiful daughter who as just been born, Ida would like to name her ???? what do you think? yes that's a wonderful name, now !! ???? had an elder brother David and he also wanted to give his sister a name I want her name to be Mary he said. So that's how I came into this world. When my farther was a lorry driver were they not called "Knights of the road"

Hi MargieH sorry about missing your Birthday but better late than never, next time you and main man give us a buzz and we hopefully can meet-up.

I have just brought some goods from Wilkinsons. The shop that has taken them over is The Range. the goods that i brought was off internet.

Well at least I manged to wake up this morning

My brother had piano lesson from being 7 and now at 84 he still writes his own music and still plays all classical. I was also given the chance to learn to play, after 2 terms i left, but I can play 3 blind mice and diddle om pom pom. Always wanted to play the violin but the chance came too late,

If I want to just relax then its the Irish Folk music or some of the classics----- The Planets Holst Waltz's The Blue Danube by Johann Strauss The Glass Mountain Fingal's Cave Mendelssohn Don't like any Mozart's music Duelling banjos is also one I like

Wiow Warson Please sir did you forget Russ Conway Side-Saddle

The 2 fish n chip shop I would recommend when we first married around the corner from us was a chippy and the gent who owned it was named ""PERCY "" Percy's was on Dame Agnes st St Ann's but by now Percy has long gone to the Chippy in the sky. The other Chippy was at Sutton on Sea but they changed owners so the only other thing is get out your old chip pan and use real lard yes!!!! real lard and you will have great heart attack chips but OH!!!! they taste good.

BK I am talking about the 60s and of cause they would not be very nice, its a long time to keep your fish n chips warm from the 60s-to the 70s, The thing is though when you have been out at night on the town you eat almost anything and of cause this is men I am talking about.

Fish n' Chips A friend of ours when staying at Winthorpe Skeg on holiday he would always call at the chippy on his way home after a night out, The chippy I am sure most of member know of it, It's called the Linger/Longer now our friend had this theory why the chippy was called the Linger Longer, after he had got his fish n' chips he had to walk to his caravan site which was Stows manor farm, which took about 15mins. As you went down the dirt track to your caravan there was a waste bin, and every night was the same as our friend arrived at the bin he was on his last chip. So my friends

Just watched man/boys group on U-Tube Celtic Thunder Irish folk songs and a few Irish rebel songs.

When my son was 13 we were ask to go and see his teacher, the teacher told us that he would like to put him in for his O' levels and his A levels as in know certain terms he would pass. Well we ask him about it and he was not interested. By the time he did leave school he only had maths O' level. Then along came the Y.T.S. he just utterly refused to go on it, One morning I was so fed up with him just getting out of his pit (bed) I picked up the Yellow page phone book. threw it at him and said go though all that book and find yourself a job. Well his friend said that they wanted people at there

A good while ago my brother was 65 so packed our bags and went over to ``Balve Germany for his birthday bash. Quite a few had being invited to my brothers this happy day. In Germany from starting school till they leave they have a daily lesson in speaking English, Now there were about 20 at the house and not one German spoke to us in English we sat with 2 of the children as they seemed to be the only people that knew we were there.
