@MRS B The small shredded wheats you can buy are different from the malted shreddies I like.

Was it a footballer on an advert a long time ago who said he had 3 Shredded Wheat for breakfast?

I buy the Tesco cheap version of Shreddies …….. and they are my favourite at the moment but never with hot milk - yuk

Yes I have been thinking about the next meet up - just tried to start a new topic in Nottstalgia Social Functions but failed as I wasn’t sure who to tag, which was a required box to fill in. Kev, could you do that for me please?

We don’t have a fireplace in our little bungalow - wish we did- and there’s not even enough space to fix an electric fire against the wall. We do have radiators though so we do keep warm..

I quite like Ant and Dec …..

@The Engineer once again, thankyou for posting the Sherwood photos - I used to spend some time in that area when I was a teenager 1956 - c1960

@Gem we enjoyed going round the ‘Galleries of Justice actually in Nottingham (not called that now.?). If you like the macabre, this will suit you !

Always at the RIGHT lion for me

@The Engineer I enjoyed looking at all the photos of Woodborough Road and Mapperley, even though most of them were after my time in Nottingham when I used to look out of the number 31 bus on my way home from town. I recognised some of the shops and other buildings …. Thank you for posting them.

My mum setting me up with a little ‘kitchen’ in the garden .. I used to mix soil and water to make little cakes which I put on a cake rack to dry in the sun. I decorated them with tiny stones and flower heads

@PeverilPeril what a shock when you heard about the bus accident but pleased no-one was badly hurt. x

I agree. It’s also like when you take an ordinary photo of a full moon (one of those that look big). The photo shows a much smaller image.

…..so it was quite big then! Very strange …..

How big were these lights compared with the size of the moon or a star? I’m interested…
