  2. Favourite film scenes

    in Owt' Abaaht Nowt !

    Agree with the end scenes of Railway Children and Coming Home, filling up just thinking about them!

    Love the scene in Die Hard 2 (I think) where John (Bruce Willis) takes a fax from a female airport staff person behind a desk. She is flirting with him and he shows her his wedding ring, twiddling it on his finger, and says "just the fax ma'am, just the fax". A play on words from the phrase "just the facts ma'am" often said by the police.

    Like the scene in Total Recall when the Arnie character is disguised as a woman at an airport or something similar and his speech goes all funny and his face breaks apart. Makes me laugh.

  3. Growing up in Bilborough

    Hi

    I am looking for my old friend Debbie from Bilborough. She worked as a Saturday girl at Woolworths in Clifton roughly 1974 when she was about 14. It was unusual to have a Saturday job so far from where you lived but I think it was because a of hers worked at the Clifton branch full time and she used to travel with her. Debbie and I had lots of great times and nights out when we were around 14-16. Unfortunately with my failing memory I can't remember her surname. I think she might have got a job at Bell Fruit when she left school. Does any of this ring any bells with anyone!

  9. Fashion boutique in Hockley 1970s

    Hi

    I visited a charity shop in Hockley the other day and when I went downstairs I got serious dejvu! Think it used to be a trendy girls boutique in 1970s. Not Ice Nine, although I would be interested to be reminded what that used to be too. It was a smaller shop on one of the other corners on the same side as Ice Nine. Anyone remember either shop in the 70s?
