  1. This looks Woodhorn Pit Museum, near Ashington, Northumberland. My dad worked for many years there.
  2. Bat out of Hell!! Last Summer we were asleep in bed when I was awoken by a sucking/clicking sound on my pillow, about 2 inches from my ear. I ignored it at first thinking it was my imagination, can't be my wife trying to revive memories of yesteryear I thought? Then suddenly, it stopped and this was followed by a slight flapping sound coming in various directions across the bedroom. I sat up in the dark, noticing my wife had left the bedroom window open. I thought, oh no, a bird must has flown in. So, I shot up, switched the bedside light on, shook my wife and said "get up"! we hav
  3. Thank you 'Paradidle' and 'Cliff Ton'. Now at least you have confirmed the Group 'Our Young' did exist! I was worried I may be hallucinating in my old age. Obviously, the 'Led Zeppelin' and '10 Years After 'leads were spurious. Thanks for responding.
  4. As a member of Cotgrave Youth Club in 1965, I attended a dance/gig starring a group called 'Our Young'. Does anyone know anything about them? I was told many years later, that some of the members formed '10 Years After', then again someone said they morphed into 'Led Zeppelin'. Perhaps none of the previous is true, however if anyone has any information of this 60's group 'Our Young', I would appreciate it.
  5. I was more interested in girls, Motown and beer when I lived in Nottingham.(17-18yrs old). However if this subject is your thing, can I suggest you read 'Hidden Persuaders' by Vance Packard (published in 1957). I read it when I was studying for my ONC at Peoples college. For me it could send a glass eye to sleep, however Brew, DJ360 and others might find it interesting? Vance Packard's book The Hidden Persuaders, about media manipulationin the 1950s, sold more than a million copies. In The Hidden Persuaders, first published in 1957, Packard explo
  6. Now listening to :Anderson East Performing "If you keep leaving me"
  7. Thanks Brew. Will ask my 5yr old granddaughter to help me with that!
  8. So only privileged Apple Mac users can view it??
  9. Sorry Im going to have to figure this out............not technical minded. I'll have to ask my 5 year old granddaughter !
  10. I've already won the lottery: view from my house: Nottingham Mod.heic
  11. Your right! Prices have gone crazy here since Harry met Megan......we even spent £6m doing up an old house for it to stand empty, except for the odd visit to attend funerals!
  12. £10!.. thats cheap, Here in Windsor, before Covid, the indoor carwash charged a minimum of £25..... and no discount for Electric! ....................to be fair, that was for a clean inside and outside, they also demand cash........umm..........not a good move during this Covid pandemic!
  13. Thanks! will give it a Blast. 'Thunder Road" brings back memories of when I was 18yr, driving my Ford Thames 5cwt van (with two airbeds in the back..... sold unused!) flat out on the A52 At 57mph, not quite "Thunder Road".........but hey, everything was thrilling at 18yr!
  14. Waiting for bedtime ..................so in my dreams, I can talk to facemask-less people, hug my grandkids, plan my Spanish holiday, have a drink inside a pub, stop watching Netflix, switch off the Covid news, ignore the rules, escape boredom ...................and start living again !!!!
