IAN FINN

I think Pacific Western Airlines ( Please Wait Awhile) was the forerunner of Canadian Airlines International i seem to remember flying to Vancouver with them in the early 70s.

Almost forgot BK Happy Anniversary hope the weather is ok at Skeggy take care of her is there any good fish and chip shops there? Is the clock tower still there? my father used to service and maintain it in the 50s and 60s.

Was she still buried in the sand or did you find her in the SHIP Beekay.

Check out DUKES at Wiki and the submarine tour of the ocean bed and see various wrecks.

I wish i knew about nottstalgia sooner and could have corresponded with Chulla about RR. and Hucknall Aerodrome.We had a few customers from RR Hucknall come to my fathers garage at Watnall, two of them i remember was a Mr Coles who lived at Bleaseby who drove a mid 60s Vauxhall Cresta,and another chap by the name of John Ball who lived at Nuthall,he was an invalid who drove a early 60s minor 1000 traveller which we converted to hand controls. Have great memories of going to the airshows seeing the latest technology of the day and really enjoyed the ten shilling flight over Nottingham in the DC

Katyjay did Chulla work at Rolls Royce i knew a few people that worked at RR. Hucknall during the 60s.

Good to hear you are doing ok Beekay just on my way home from work can not wait to pull the wifes knickers off, why you ask ? The bloody things are killing me. Take care stay safe.

Just got home from boating, read about your heart attack take care take it easy and keep your pecker up keep posting the jokes laughter is the best medicine.

What year did you live on Holden Cres.Baz? I lived on Spencer Dr. just up the road from there i lived there from 1950 until 1968 and i can remember the estate being built i think it was Costain that built it. Before that there was a big house there surronded fields and trees which belonged to Charlie Hanson part of the Hardy Hanson breweries .When i was about 8 years old i remember going to Garden Fetes there every year it was very colourful i believe the house was called either Nuthall House or Nuthall Lodge. Across the road from the opening on Watnall Road in the 50s was a small army barrack

MargieH it is a Standard 12 or14 they were made beween 1945 and 1948. I think the only difference is the engine size. If i remember right the motif on top of the grill had a union jack on each side.

Nottingham will never be the same so sad.

Watch the Benny Hill skit where is in Munchen doing the Stork Butter test,can you tell Stuck from Butter. I would show it but dont know how to put it on Nottsalgia.

Was the frothy coffee called expresso made from hot steamed milk?

I could do all these activities only when wearing sanitary wear. I remember seeing the ad on tv.

Is the sailing club still at Hoveringham think i remember seeing many years ago mid 60s is that where the Hoveringham gravel pits were?. Did they have speed boat racing there as well?

Tell us the drain bung story Phil sounds interesting.

It would be looking towards Watnall and Kimberley did a bit of train spotting at Awsworth in the 50s.I can remember forty bridges being demolished but can not remember the year maybe late sixties?

Happy Birthday SG a bit late been in the garden all day its looking pretty good now may have sunstroke it was 33 degrees.You say you were at Bulwell market ,do you know if Hattons the market gardeners still have a stall there they are my fathers relations.
