SORT ya'sen out mate,messing about in hospitals,..tut..tut,

I WAS THINKING MORE OF A PLEASURE TRIP,with a stop off in say Newark for a couple of hours shopping.

Met him in Norwich in the 70s,staying at the same Hotel bought me a drink,seemed good bloke,find it all very sad,just a shame its took all these years,feel sorry for his family.Things were very different back then but men touching women inapropabley is always wrong and when it comes to kids........well there are no words.

If they really put some thought and imagination into it they could run a regular service to places like, Gunthorpe and Newark and perhaps even Gainsborough,

Police station other side of 'Flints' shop,and was in the 80s,might have been though.

don't mention em

In the nottingham Post today they are talking about a Ferry' service down the Trent from Queens drive park and ride' to the 'football and cricket grounds" depending on government funding. I think it could be really good for Nottingham and if approved could be taken alot further for tourism as a whole extending along the Trent.

I ought to know,back in the 80s i had alot of dealings with the Flint family at the shop next door,but can't remember if it was even in use then.

Ive only been 5 months but it seems much longer,certainly some interesting folk on here.Its made me realise how much my spelling had slipped as ive got older.I am sure that i know some of you from times past but probably only by sight especially the Basford and Bulwell element. I was born and raised on the old Bestwood est and iam surprised that ive yet to come across anyone else from my old schools Henry Whipple and Padstow .Anyway thanks to you all for the many interesting hours ive wiled away on here,............i must get a life again

And finished up with you 'darkazana' what a lucky fella

ME DAD used to tell me 'you'll get such a bleddy wonsa' in a minute''

'I'D Love to have been 'Head Boy' there then!!!!

What was the place in Leicester similar name ?

I was too mick............................ooh sorry thought that was PERFECT.

Thought Chile' were unlucky last night, noticed a Forest man (ex?) missed a penalty for em.

Just heard the Uraguayan FA are contesting his ban,they say 'he tripped and he landed teeth first on the Italian'...if i tripped my teeth would have flew into the crowd.

On retirement.. The transition from 'Who's who' to Who's he ' Eddie George.

I KNOW AYUP,ITS A 'BARK' INIT,...........TUT'

Basfordred i sometimes give you 'a like' not because i agree with your sentiments but because i find them funny.....

Anyone see the fight last night between Willie Limond and Curtis Woodhouse ? both men in their mid 30s and they were a credit to Boxing,with their skill and sportsmanship.

That the place clff ton, nice to see a bit of Old Basford still standing,i think its a nursery now.

Anyway just thought, how often do we get a 'power cut'?..

I DON'T disagree with you 'bubblewrap' its just that i have all these books and very seldom read em any more, and i know i'll never part with em.

Rock house is correct,but now there is a Rock court just below off Stockhill lane

On cliff tons map where it says 'lodge' in Barkers wood,that was an old Bulwell stone' building which in the 50s and 60s was used as dressing rooms for the football pitches.
