I'll go with Freda avenue, had a mate lived in a flat there, it was a nightmare in winter.

Was that from the top of the flagpole?, painted it in 76. When it was a steel one, not like today's fiber glass version.

You want to try the folk's in Norfolk, 30 years there and still couldn't work them out. Mind you, when they think that incest is a game for all the family, what do you expect !!

Do you have to turn up early in winter and late in spring?

He looks like he's been told, he's got to get a tram back home!!

My most sincere condolences, from my short time on this site, I can honesty say that he seemed to be such a genuine and knowledgeable person. He will be greatly missed by all. R.I.P. Chulla.

Don't go by tram nonna, all them gadgets would probably cause a power failure

Damm, missed out again, don't get back for another week!! Don't even need to sprain my ankle, its full of screw's and plates to start with, or is that cheating?

Who enforced that curfew? I think the war is over!!

Thankfully not in my lifetime, give me good old suck,squeeze, bang,blow any time.

Yes I know what you mean, it would be like having a two stroke without the benefits of a two stroke.

You have to give them credit for perseverance if nothing else, brother in law has a RX8 and it gos like stink. But it use's a bit of oil and it's not done a great milage. Still very impressive performance from technically a 1300 cc engine!!.

He would need a tap on the head then,

Another benefit of the rotary engine was the fact it had very few moving parts, and the displacement was tiny but was categorized as a higher cc than it actually was. The engine is small and revs freely and very smoothly. If only they could sort those rotor tips!!

Even the trolley bus could pass a broken down one quite easily!

With the little use that the damm things are getting, when it's time to sell, the return should be quite good, maybe as much as £10.00 per carriage!!

They were a Tibetan guard dog of sorts, used to warn the monks of intruders.

No, never used them, as I recall ian.

Or Katie for short!!

It's easy for you to say!

Cor, that brings back some memories. Many a Saturday spent hunting for parts at 'Podders'. And if they didn't have it, over to Albert Looms for another rummage round. Don't know why I went to 2 totally different directions!.

There's a pile of horseshoes like that if you go through aslockton, I think it was the done thing at the blacksmith, I've seen another somewhere but can't think where at the moment. Edit, just looked at the map der! Might be the same pile after seeing the location. But have seen it done elsewhere.

I say, let masochists have a fare crack of the whip!!

I doubt if Britain could make candles without the wick or the wax or both being imported!!

Not quite Mansfield rd,but can't find a Peel st thread. What was the taxi firm called on Peel st, the phone no was 47606 probably added a 5 prefix later! Edit, just remembered, it was phone a car, fon a cab, fon a car or something like that.
