Is there any room for humans? And which one fits in the tow harness?

Greetings David and welcome to NS. I'm sure it won't be long before someone joins in your chat and brings you into the fold.

I've got a mate down in Eastbourne who, when carphones first appeared, he used to keep a plastic toy one in his car and whenever he was about to pass anyone or stopped at traffic lights, he used to pick it up and pretend to be talking to someone. No idea who he was trying to impress? His daughters thought he was barmy.

A classic case of " If it ain't broke, don't fix it", Phil.

I bought a couple of hand held radios when I was at Chailey Heritage school. It help 'er indoors to locate me as I could be anywhere on sight. This was of course, before I'd even got a mobile phone. The radios came in handy when travelling in tandem with another car. Able to communicate without having to stop and converse. I used to have a pager but the radios worked better, (if my pager went off, I would have to find a phone). Still got a couple of pairs of radios. Used to have radios at Holme Pierrepont, when I was a Ranger. (HP5) Another point, CBs are free to use.

Be a big park though O.P., from Broad Marsh all the way down to the river Trent. That I would like to see !!

I reckon the novelty started to wear off in the late eighties Phil. Then when mobiles came along, it killed CB stone dead. A pity really, I used to like using the link to other travellers. Once the estate kids got their hands on radios it all went downhill as they were not using correct radio procedure and just bucket mouthing all the time, blocking out bona fide users. I fitted a decent little radio to my son's mobility scooter, so was able to monitor him if he went visiting or along the seafront without us tagging along. For example, if we went to Wollaton Park, he could be half way round th

DJ, up in Boolwool, they never asked, " what's your twenty"? It always came out as "Twenny ". We had a club that met in the Nelson at Crabtree. Met on Wednesday nights, hence "Wednesday Squadron". I've still got two rigs, one being a Midland Ready Recue, still in it's case.

Always known as 'The girl next door'. She could live next door to me any time. Another one Ben, "Secret Love".

I wish you all the luck in the world SG. In the meantime, while you're waiting, why not throw a lead on your spider and take her for a walk. You can show her all your favourite places and stop in the Park, with your flask of tea and Marmite sandwiches.

Can I assume you mean crate or cage Sue?

You could always make him/her a little set of steps Cherub. After all you want to make the little one feel at home. Not heard much of your spider recently, have you evicted it?

Then my sincere apologies to you sir. I must admit, I didn't know what the establishment was called when I frequented it. Memory and Fog come to mind. On a lighter note, wasn't WHSmith stall just inside the archway entrance, where the taxis pulled up? With a little cabin on the outside pavement. Those arches look like they're glazed now. (Unless I've got that wrong as well).

SG, putting the coffee table next to the sideboard, won't that be like a step to get up to the sideboard?

Are you expressing an opinion Ben? Or perhaps telling the name of the café. Was sitting on one case and when we went for our lunch, who should be sat there but the Defendant.

If memory serves me correctly, somewhere about half way up from Canal Street to the canal, there used to be a lovely little cafe/tearoom. When I was on jury service at Crown Court, us jurors used to go in there for our lunchtime recess.

That's what I've done Engineer. Tried to go back to old school but you can't see the bloody icons. And my device is a little Samsung A tab.

What theme are you using Jill?

Tell you what I did little sis. On the top right corner of page, I tapped the three menu dots and from the option's box I tapped 'desk top site'. That sorted it. ( just had another look and desk top site showed a little blue box with a tick, showing I was on there).

Has this screen changed again? I have now lost the ability to to show notifications and no pm icon. Which means I can't send a personal message or find out if anyone is contacting me. What's up? Edit..Ignore the above,(as everybody has) i have found me screen again. Must have pressed a wrong thingy.

If you're sitting at a desk or table Carni, why not just leave it connected. That way you'll be running on mains rather battery. I've got a 12" lap top that won't hold a charge, but works fine on mains. You can't replace the battery unfortunately.

I'm richer than that Brew. I've got £2.61.

It don't say Nottingham names. It do say Top names in Nottingham. Steeple or Spire, now they're top names.

I thought they were semi-detached.
