danny333 7 Posted July 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 30, 2011 When " Magdan " starts posting she will have a tale or two to tell of Mundella etc, she also belonged to The Co Operative Arts Centre In Nottingham ( Sue Pollard,) Hi De Hi, Peter Bowles ( To The Manor Born ) and other contemporaries. Also, thanks to the site we have contacted an old connection in Canada from 60 years ago !!. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
