Didn't she go to school or live in Nottingham. at some point?

Please elaborate.. All my schooling was W4, my daughter still lives there.. Considering the initial outbreak, I'm happily surprised at the containment..

Thanks Cliffton, yes that was my best summation, I'll go with that. I think i do recall reading (5 years ago..a long time nowdays) of transfer's to Ransom Road which was no longer fee-paying, and also references up to the early twenties.

Not surprised this has no responses, I was being a lazy so & so, went back with a magnifying glass, the maps 1899, published 1901. I have been looking for a definitive guesstimate on the closing of the Asylum for awhile. The 'fever hospital' is also very intriguing.

Pendulum was a great place. First right at the entrance, remember it was difficult to see the owner with all the sleeves on display, arm came through to collect your cash! Think I remember the other stall, never bought many 45's, it was much further in, wondering if it had any thing to do with the stall that traded comics?

Went for a wonder with Letsavagoo's brilliant map on the football, bobbers mill thread. Rather then interupting, better to post here, noticed there's an additional 'fever hospital' near the Asylum, new one on me, what year was the map?

Thanks DavidW, I would have just about dismissed the name Dale as a major long shot, but with Liverpool St, there's a good chance my GGM could have been his Aunty! Not sure what relation that possibly makes him to me.... irrelevant..I will look into his story.

What amazes me...no reference to bed sharing 24 hour taxi drivers , sweat shops paying under the minimum wage, Over a million illegals by the government's own admission. Unlikely to go for test..All going under the radar, not entitled to furlough but everybody needs to put food on the table... The flipside of this, I'm happily surprised how they appear to have conquered the London Corvid issue... London centric with resources?

Been talking to an old mate on the phone this evening. Does anybody remember JR record's in the Vic Centre Market about 1973, bit before my time!

Does anybody else only see the first 3 pictures when using the link on this site? Did a general Google for the page, worked fine.. strange. Yes that's the picture, Hindleys, must be close on 100 years? What year did Virgin close? Letting my brain race here..nothing new Did that Virgin Shop have turnstiles at the doorway entrance? Recall an upstairs that had arcade games...

I like tennis.. but the only sport's I could watch repeats of are Snooker, Football, & Dart's.. hmm..social profiler? Got 14 episodes of Walking through history with Tony Robinson still to watch, TV will be in the garden for extra authenticity..

Would Lincoln St be the one that had Jonathan James on the other corner? When I looked at the original pic, I was thinking back entrance to Littlewoods.. Don't currently have access to maps, Google etc.. Unrelated. i recall seeing a picture that show's Bradley's/Virgin being a music shop in about 1900, possibly could have been music related, for close on 100 years! Looked on Google the entrance/alley to the right, was blocked, but the outline can still be seen today (well..4 years ago) Again unrelated but when walking from Clumber St to the back entr

Wish i could, always had issue's with the Nottingham live site, 3 pic"s then black squares, site fully loaded & scrollable. Good things to say about Broad Marsh, BHS Restaurant, John Menzies, Wimpy & Argos.. & Situls gift shop!

A little confused, Where would the Kardomah Cafe be today, does the building still stand? I'm thinking facing McDonald's... I remember the remnants of the old photographic studio, up a flight of stairs, had the name in frosted glass in the early 80's, looked for it on Google earth years ago, modern market stall was the best I got, also looked like the building behind had been modernised.. Think the studio was taken over by Joules? (Name/spelling) in 1930, they also had a branch on Arkwright St, and branches Nationwide/Manchester. Can't recall off hand what the studio was call

In the mid to late Seventies I recall a shop, roughly next to the Lion Hotel, doors were always wide open, so the chap on the mic could be heard, Never went in personally but did find it interesting! I quote... 'not asking 20 quid, only looking for a tenner, a sea of hands go up.. tell you what, a fiver, sorry folks..the lady there got it' Used to see these sort of shops regularly at the seaside, this is the only time I recall seeing one on a main high street. Some real tat, but did throw in luxuries like a toaster etc... probably reserved f

Watched it, last week's had at least four, what would be considered un-pc moments in the first fifteen minutes! Tonight's wasn't much better, refreshing to see a programme broadcast without those silly warnings. Best bit..Big Rock Candy Mountain, at the end..

Was Pieces the club that had Trad' Spanish dancing lessons on the top floor? Different premises from above..stated below.. Prior to being the new cookie i recall it being selective and focused on the dance all-nighter scene. About '93.

Too much waffling mind by me there, apologies.. Should have said does anybody remember a nightclub with a spiral staircase? and possibly the same place.. A small cave that was used as a dancefloor?

Agreed Radford Red, Cookie Club was Pelham Until St James's St watched a video years ago, they said move was 1990, more like '95 Anyway, reason I searched this out, was there a club that had spiral staircase in the lace market? Was thinking Beetroot but memory did a virtual tour & not sure! After going through the door large wooden bar on the right, staircase beyond, on the left a row of leather sofas, had a bare wooden floor. Now this is where I think my confusion kicks in, the upstairs could be accessed from both sides, from the left, you were greeted by a r

In about 1996 stall charges were £15 if I remember correctly, regular traders had a reduced rate, seemed a lot at the time, but people used to run to get in when the barriers came down at 6.30! 50p entrance...

There was a place that survived, roughly facing the St Peters church, next door but one to Either Weathermans or Flittermans, very small in comparison, could have been possibly Radio rentals or fusion, picked up a recon' video recorder there for £35 with a 3 month guarantee about '97, clapped out after about 5 months, but served its purpose.

I was a Maverick Wimpy Golden egg as a child/teen.. I do recall being disappointed when MC seemed to be everywhere, can't recall visting one before "85....& only about 6 times since....the fillet of fish was OK..

For a moment there a thought you were talking about the Lettuce! Is that shade of paint known as gherkin? There was a burger joint roughly next to what became M'donalds, Wheeler Gate side. It was called Mavericks, pool table upstairs, this was about '83. Pretty sure Mc predated Burger K in Nott's, which was the first one? I was thinking Clumber St?

It was a porn shop Brew, on the corner with Colwick Rd, admittedly before our time..I did mention a left at the junction. I never mentioned '49, could even had been a porn shop then.. Maybe could have moved, my recollection is about 1970...

Seen many times and haven't had the opportunity to photo? Would these 'Various Places' include your house and driveway,.. I look forward to your pic's on this forum....
