plantfit 7,592 Posted January 5, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2007 Ayup Frank All I got from the link was a blank screen, However if you stand in front of the old corn exchange on Thurland street, look across the road at the old Nottingham bank building then look up at the roof he's sat up there. Next question is...WHY cheers Roger Quote Link to post Share on other sites

plantfit 7,592 Posted January 12, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2007 Ayup Mick Not been to Nottingham for some time now and not got any plans in the near future either, But if I do get over I'll make a point of going on Thurland street with a camera to see if he's still up there.

Ā (my dad died in '72). Ā Her new husband was a big evolution fan. Ā Most of you have probably seen the Gorilla there. Ā My mam suddenly said to him, Ā "Oh look! Ā there's one of your relatives."

I remember that series monkey , i saw Davy jones from the band the monkees when i worked in the horseracing stables for G toby balding , he had come to ride one of our horses in a charity race ! What was the other chinese series with david carradine , they'd call him grasshopper and he'd hold a red hot pot with his wrist ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Beekay 5,141 Posted June 4, 2022 Report Share Posted June 4, 2022 David, the other series you allude to was called, "Kung Fu". Carradine played the part of Kwai Chang Caine. His father was John Carradine, actor of many films. His brother is Keith Carradine, one of his films was 'Easy Rider', with Dennis Hopper. Hope this helps. B. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
