LizzieM please don't take comment wrong way (it's good to talk) just a phase we all remember from TV adds. ps Don't for get to send your Christmas Cards.

Must be dull of under standing FLY2 Please explain

Just got round to reading your post DAVIDW it take's a lot to upset me I have a very board back, I just like the discussion that we have, I would never take offence, its just good old banter.

"HELP" I'm getting lost with all this technology. I have this thing called a smart phone and it keeps telling me to download APPS. How many apps are their my phone will only stand so many, as for "Google" three times it's telling me to change things. Maybe you have to get a course at university get your Cert head then yon can sit on the tram your fingers will type faster, you know then you have cracked it. Was it not better to pick up the phone? can you remember "It's Good To Talk"

Must admit most time I find TV not very interesting but "Killing Eve" is excellent and I don't fall asleep halfway through, the look in her eyes of Jody Comer when she is just about to kill someone makes her look like she really is enjoying killing, Her acting is brilliant I would not like to be coming home on a dark night and find her waiting for me.

Don't worry LizzieM One less house for Santa to visit. "MERRY CHRISTMAS"

The first showing of the Microwave Oven was on "Tomorrow's World" not sure of the date but it seemed to be quite a while after this show was on TV, that they sold them in the shops. The commentated said if I remember "This is the way we will be cooking in the future.

Well just read last few post of this topic and they say chivalry is dead not on Nottstaigia when five of our men members talk about washing powder, well done you five there's no chauvinism here on NOTTSTAIGIA, PS Don't for get Sunlight soap.

Sorry DAVIDW I can not resist getting on my soapbox. There a lot of people out there who think unisex hairdresser's make a lot of money good luck to him if he's retiring to his villa in Spain, but just because he has a villa doe's not mean that he has made lots of money. It might be a small shop but he would still have to pay water rates/council tax/ his son's wages/ NI for his son unless he rent's a chair/ yes he has been a barber for years but he still needs the skills of cutting/washing/styling/ and he with been his age had to pay to learn his skills. OPPS also new sweeping brush (not the

£4 00 for a hair cut well what can one say? are we talking mens hair? is the customer charged for what is taken off or what is left behind? Even if its gents or ladies even unisex this salon is under cutting himself. Give him a year and his/her salon will be up for sale.

Can I just say as i'm not sure where to comment now? to welcome new members A very warm welcome to 2 new members Notts Landing Sadbrewer I hope to read lots more of your post's again a very big welcome

A very good morning to you Commo !

I' m sure the bank was The Westminister and not the Midland , but I could be wrong but I think the Midland was near the top of Alfreton Rd next to the pawn shop.

Don't get me wrong I love my City. I have lived in quite a few places Arnold, Daybrook, South Africa, Anderby, Eastwood, now Jacsdale. When people ask were am I from I will always say Nottingham I always class myself as a Nottingham girl no matter where I go. Then I will always say "Yes I'm a Nottingham girl and proud to be, as you see and I'm a St Ann's girl. this is where my root's are, the old St Ann's. Buildings The University this is one of the best buildings we have old! yes! but still in good condition we have Jesses Boot to thank for giving the Uni for our city.

Hi TBI The Black Boy I can just remember the out side with it's carvings was beautiful. as you walked into reception facing you was a massive mahogany staircase at the bottom, were two statues of two little boy dressed in turban's and stately cloths it was shear luxury, when I started work my boss took us to the County Hotel for a Christmas meal, all I can remember are the very large mural's on the walls. TBI Drury hill! have you ever been to Lincoln? at the side of the cathedral they kept their old shop's re- repaired them now the draw people from all over the world. Ma

OHHH I know they have all turned into sh!!!!! machines called Canadian Geese. No longer can sit/re

Maybe the "ALIANS"would like him

Make that 3 kinds of socks when my son 13//14 wore his trainers and removed them the smell was !!!!!!!!! it would go all around the house, you did not dare go into his bed room, when I did, I would open the window and throw his trainers on to the patio, but even the neighbour's complained about the smell.

We lived in South Africa for a while and yes the water doe's go anti clockwise, when you get to middle earth I would imagen that it just changes direction.

Can any one remember the "AMOY" this was also near the bottom of Derby Rd Welcome Nottingham89 looking forward to your post's Oh by the way there is a meet up at the Lime Kiln on 3rd Oct from 12 00noon would be nice if you could make it. ps the Lime Kiln is in Bulwell.

see my post Sept 2nd lots of ducks

sorry member's but this is how's your yesterday. Went to john my cousin's cremation Wednesday it was at Gedling Crematorium now I don't know if your like me, but I had never heard of a Crematorium at Gedling, so put post code into "flossy" and found it just a short ride from Traveller's Rest(pub) This Crematorium put Wilford Hill's to shame. It was built one and a half years ago, now I know Wilford Hills is old but last time I went to a cremation there the heating was not working and they could not get the gates to close, maybe the council will spend a little money on W/H, and update it

Hope to see you at the meet up MargieH
