Carni, Vodaphone are terrible. sorry you couldn't get a signal. I couldn't either my phone wouldn't work. unless I stood on a hill in my village, practically standing up on my head, with my arm stuck out at a 45 degree angle and holding my breath. So much for the glossy ad's. ​Reminds me of the good old days, a bit like a harry Worth sketch, with a portable indoor areil, having to be a contortionist to get a signal. De Da.

Thank you so much my friend. I have a Fuji bridge camera, and a Toshiba 3D camera, I bought recently. but I want something to take some semi pro pictures to take mainly of your city. I really appreciate your advice, will check out site, and consider your advice. take care De Da.

They used to tax window in yer house, tax Gin that you drank, the air next. Why do you think they wanted everyone to have I.D cards?. they can now chip you like a dog, a chip as small as a grain if rice. I have heard, but don't know how true it is, that William and Harry already have them, in case they get kidnapped they can track them?.

As a novice, thinking about buying a Nikon. Can anyone please tell me the major differences between the models, and which is best?. Thank you. not too bothered about the number of pixels. De Da.

Yes Mick went to the Porterhouse once, around 79, forget who we saw. Rock lobster The B52's was in the charts. remember meeting a beauty from Doncaster. Blonde dyed hair, black jacket and just dark tights. pity i didn't get her number. she was a punk. I was into Sham 69.Then Gary Numan. When I first started playing synthesizers. I died my hair electric blue like Numan. must have looked stupid looking back. oh the spoils of youth. Two floors as I remember. some big names appeared there Happy days. Thank you for making me remember. I Know a girl who worked there she got to know everyone. Jimmy

Wow that's some Mobile Mick. my phone does everything. point it up at the stars, it tells you what the stars are. I can listen to public services radio in the states. everything but make a cup of tea. and you know what ironically?. can't make a phone call for some reason. ​It's amazing technology,' when it works'. wonder what the future will bring. anyone remember brick telephones/. r rabbit phones. you had to stand near a location like a shop to get a connection. De Da.

Really nice phone Mick. something that will increase in value i thinx. they claim. they are made in china, shipped to america and distributed around the world. reminds me looking at it. of my American red payphone I had shipped from Texas. Ayeupducks. I have a friend half Cherokee, who was born in what is now silicon valley. she's a stunner. interesting about the chips. Thanx De Da.

I was just going to say,the colored dial phones, are very sort after today. People like retro style, designers, students. period interior's. retro shops. ect. They produce replicas today. Ever see bakerlight telephones on carboots. the colors to look out for are, White, valuable, red very valuable, Green, take everyone on here for a meal. if your not sure about bakerlite. It will be heavy feel cold like stone to touch. ​The 300 series with receiver and long body with dial, was designed by the King of Sweden, in the late 30's. The pyramid phone are more valuable. sometimes these phones had a l

That trimphone could fetch a bob or two. the leather cased ones are rare. Look out for them on carboot sales, 60's 70's dial phones too.the blue, green, red and black one are the ones to look out for. V My collection was featured in Millers collectibles guide books. 1999-2000 and 2000-2001. I valued them too Don't know what Beef steak was on about?. I think the phone you have Cliff as far as I can remember, is an Ambassador. Unusual to get a white one,they were mainly beige or mustard color. They made tings to last in those days.

Passed through a street on the way to the castle yesterday. Had a few pubs looked like music venues. One was called the Malt cross I think?. What are they like. are they safe places to visit. could you recommend them?. De Da.

Thank you for the info. I'll have to check out that B side. Didn't know he produced Tv, but it would make sense. did a lot of TV himself. Cheers De Da.

Not sure about that. I wouldn't advice it, but surely a sledgehammer could be a solution, Down sizing would take on a whole new meaning. Cheers Pete.

Had a look at some fancy dress costumes in the Victoria center yesterday, it be good fun if invited. Coming all the way from Sheffield dressed as a fairy might be a problem though. De Da.

Thank you to everyone who replied. Want to go to Bulwell, I heard they had a good Market?. Cheers De Da.

Thanks Mick, They sell some good stuff. One xmas, I bought the most wonderful calenders as presents from there for our art class, of scenic lake district 29p each. Bought some metal signs with puppies on and a caption 29p .sold them for £2 each. Loved the watches you showed us today. must get a few. cheers De Da.

Well I've just got back home. had a lovely day in your city. Went for a wonderful meal at the flaming dragon Chinese restaurant The corner house.. they have a sushi bar after 6pm. Then I took a trip to Ye Olde Jerusalem Inn. last week I met an Australian, a spanish Girl A Lithuanian and another English guy. we had a good laugh. Today, some Chezch people think that's how you spell it. and a British guy who was with them. I exercised my on word of Chezch. 'Robot'. and we talked about the Nazi Heidrich. who was assassinated Hiltler ordered a whole village to be obliterated to the ground and ma

My fathe rcame over from Hungary, in the 50's I imagine, and Worked down Gedling pit. His name was Michael Dome. a long shot anyone remembers, Lived in west Bridgeford. I used to see all the retired, redundant miners on benches in every villiage. Don't tend to see them anymore so sad.

Sounds nice friend. what's life like over there. great to hear from you. interesting. De Da Pete.

Get you now Mick. Nice watches wouldn't mind one. thanks for telling us. De Da.

Perhaps you just get a photo?. De Da.

Psst! you don't want to buy some genuine replica Rolex watches do you?. Don't tell anyone Mick. £8.000 in the shops. but to you, 50p. De Da.

Nice curtains.

Talking about The Chinese industrial revaluation. Chairman Mow, translated as 'Cat'. commanded every village and town to produce steel, it was a complete failure. the steel was very poor quality.. Not like Sheffield steel. Another command was to kill wild birds, to stop them eating crops. people would shout and wave things to scare birds, until they fell from the sky dieing from exhaustion. Nice watches. If I was still selling on ebay, I buy and sell them for £20. D Da.

What a bargain. I used to collect and renovate old telephones. my house is like a museum. you have what is commonly known as a candlestick. the holder of the bell shaped receiver, usually had two lugs, sometimes solid ones, sometimes loops, so a lock could be fitted, to stop servants using the phone without permission. Have a look out for old trim phones, from the late 60's 70's. collectors items. Millions were scrapped. they have a radio active dial. I woke up one morni g to see one glowing in the dark. but you would have to have a lot to have any adverse affects. De Da.

Ha ha love it very funny. DE Da.
