My first single was Something in the air by Thunderclap Newman. First album was Revolver by the Beatles. Both bought at Goodchilds on Arkright st late 1960's They dont make em like that any more !

Hi Rob My father came from West Hallam near ilko lots of Henshaws is Cothmany

I can remember it being open to cars in 1966 i think it cost the old 2d to cross.

If you go along Daleside Road off Meadow lane and turn into Trent lane (car sales on the corner of mini roundabout) at the bottom of that lane is the river trent. Yacht club is last place on the left. Went there about 5 years ago and it looked familiar. I can remember Colwick Park being swings and playground and penny slot machines possibly a paddling pool.

No sorry my surname is Henshaw I was born in Gotham and lived at Calverton, The Meadows, Bestwood and now in Sherwood. I remember the name Andy Molik did he live on Orange street in the Meadows?

I can remember going to colwick park as a child in the sixties, i think it is on the site of the yacht club on Trent Lane

I remember crossing the Toll bridge to get to Roland Green school in the sixties. I think it closed to traffic around 1968.

Hi bip thanks for the welcome
