Goose Fair ? It can't be... we've not got Goose Fair weather yet

Colwick Cheese ??

I'm gonna stick my neck out and say we have found a manager that will bring to good times back to the City Ground. He has brought in experienced players who can handle the Championship (2nd Division). Watson Colback and Tomlin actually pass to Forest players and don't panic on the ball. Our previous midfields Osborn Cash Vaughan and Bridcutt couldn't control the play. Having said that Ben has been a decent stop gap at left back and Cash is scoring now. We have a keeper that can deal with crosses (at his height its expected). The players are now talking on the pitch more and seem

There is a lot of history about Annesley around the Hall . Its a pity the Norman castle built to overlook Annesley hasn't been uncovered (well at least the footings) . My favourite story is where William Chaworth fought a duel with Lord Byron (the poets uncle) .

I hated this one Fear Of Relegation Every Saturday Teatime to which I made up... Better Outcomes Lately Leave Our Critics Keeping Silence

So I'm presuming a 'Cock' Horse was the main horse when pulling trams etc.

Anyone played or know anything about a Yamaha Acoustic LL6ARE. I've looked at the reviews but they are all sales pitch -esque. I want a new acoustic with a low action and that looks my type but they are all on line. Thanks Gaz

I thought it was just me fellow hoarders. Got plenty of hand tools but I never make anything ???

Annesley Pit taken from the Frogs Head

I could never wear a dust mask when we were on the shovel or where it was hot (most districts last off). After 22 years my X Rays says I am OK but that remains to be seen

We only have one about once a month but its usually at dinner time for our main meal, bacon well done , tomatoes with plenty of pepper, sausage from Barlows, mushrooms and fried bread, eggs however they come. Blob of brown sauce. I always have bacon sandwiches on matchdays; religiously...... that might sound bad to some but with a bit of brown sauce they're scrumptious .

'Newstead Bulldogs fast in a den Daren't come out for the Annesley men!' and of course the other way round if your from Newstead or Mutton Hill etc

When the legend became fact (true life of John Wayne) a cheapo on me Amazon. He was a bit of a bogger by all accounts , the Duke. Don't know how factual it really is but cant put it down.

It was torture going down the pit when the sun was beating down. I think got rid of most of my rest-days that month on 76 and they only started in May.

Thanks Oz , thats its Ron Yeats the big dirty centre half.

Come on and cheer again, for we are here again For we are here again to see the Forest win Come on and score again 2-3 or 4 again (alt with Ian Moore again) For we are sure again we're gonna win today....... and repeat but forgot the tune Can anyone finish this one? The river Trent is deep and wide With the City Ground on the other side We play in red and white we do And when we lose we're never blue...... (it included something about 'we hate St John and Big Ron ' somewhere in the next bit

On mine only Ricardo Montalbin I've heard of

On the dreaded Methotrexate for RA, does anyone know the safe amount of beer you can drink with it

Ive got similar, are they only here for the springtime?

Bread and drippin seems a long way into the past, plenty of salt on........may have been outlawed by NHS

OK Venus...lets go Steve ................Fireball XL5

About 9 years ago we had one, felt in Derby and York we were at the time. Me and Missus were on a ground floor of a hotel in York (our 25th wedding anniversay). Before we went to sleep I said I hope a mad axe man dont come throught the window. Early hours of the morning we were woken with a rumbling and Julie said "What was that? go out check if the car is OK" Me " F*** the car" and we both got under the sheets for fear of the axe man lol. Soon our daughter phoned from Derby and we realised it was an earth tremor. I never mention axe men before we go to sleep now though.

Church Hill Annesley Rows - the one we used to sledge down. Worst for me was Tupton Drift at Newstead Pit when the belts stopped 1 in 4
