OK SON.

At least you tried to cover yasen carnie,............its par for the course nowadays.....lol.

Is it that time already...........................said when someone suddenly turned nasty. Could be used on 'nottstalgia' quite often.

Gracias senor 'mabel'

yes thats where they go Denshaw,great pair of brothers,first knew John in the early 80s from drinking in the 'White Swan' old basford,its more like a social club in their Barbers,always have a laugh and loads of 'banter'.

Carnie yes its true ! bf, i dare'nt,or she'll stop it ! ANYWAY Carnie' now you know why passing my Hat round at the 'meet up' in Bulwell was so important to me...

Osbornes Park lane old basford,as a boy,Groome and Criterion Bulwell,as a teenager,then all over the country for 20 years,then Don and Johns Basford for 25 years.

I ONLY HAVE pocket money,...........and she gives it me. ..........don't laugh its true!!

Good point tomlinson,...........and yes she does , well now and then.

I GENERALLY 'cosset' my lovely wife,buy flowers and chocs from time to time,spoil her on a daily basis,tell her i love her most days,take her out for meal now and then,tolerate her Dad (love her mam) even like her ex husband,just booked us an holiday,i'm almost too good to be true,..............then she announces she wants 'Wooing' is she being unreasonable? how do you handle problems like this ?

HUH, bark init...

Completly agree 'hippo girl'............you sure you don't like Sir Ciff OBE ?................only joking girl. lol.

Funny thing is,my wife Donna prefers the 'SUN' to any other paper,so it can't be owt to do with 'boobs'................err i hope not, lol.

Another nice bit of nostalga on that pic. Firbeck,...........BERO FLOUR.

I BUY the 'Sun' perhaps twice a week,bought it today and low and behold page 3 is the same,they got some good publicity did'nt they.don't care wether they have 'Topless' girls or not,i buy it for a quick read when i don't have time to read owt more serious.Anyway its the only paper where i can complete the crossword. lol.

Only risky if at 'tuther' end.

Firbeck,.......as you know i'm not into Trains and that (well perhaps just a little) but i thought about you recently,when i had reason to be in the old Stanton ironworks,my daughter spends 2 days a week working there,a few of the old buildings are still in use and you can imagine what a hive of activity it must have been when Trains were in and out and thousands of people spent their lives working there. Sorry you can't upload at the moment, lol.

I'M NOT INTO Trains but Portillo makes them almost interesting,and he seems a genuinly nice bloke.

She turned out to be a DEVIL WOMAN so i thought i'd better MOVE IT because theres boUnd to be a NEXT TIME and there was and everyone said CONGRATULATIONS

#69 Robbie, After being tied to me Mams APRON STRINGS i went TRAVELLING LIGHT as a BATCHELOR BOY until i found my THEME FOR A DREAM.

#64 #66 Sir Cliff Richard OBE. IF you don't mind.......robbie/andy...........

I DON'T REMEMBER owt to do with numbers,mobile ive had 10 yrs don't have clue let alone landline,post code no,car number no chance,bank card no,and it always amazes me that people remember their NI number.

#23 Ashley. We always knew it as 'Northern bridge' and the station as 'Basford and Bulwell',........often went into Nottingham on the train from there 1penny long route thru Daybrook and a halfpenny on the short route thru 'New Basford.
