Don't know why they bother anyway, I just give my lot a paste egg and tell them its Easter.

Some of them were still up from last year.

Junco Partners , blues group formed in the 60s? they are still going and were playing at Croft Park on Friday night.Did anybody see them?
-
I was often in the place during the 60s when it was known as the "Disc" It was one of the first Discotheque's in the area and was always packed out (lots of fights caused in them days due to pushing and shoving). It was a vaux pub then as well but I always drank bottles of Double Maxim, because the draught beer tasted like Boiled privet hedge !

Was Craiges the railway?

Thanks for that Pete, funny you should mention Alvin Stardust but I saw him 3 years ago when I went to an open air concert at Lincoln Castle.The headline act was Roy Wood who I went to see and I didn't know Stardust was going to be there.He was actually better than Roy Wood as he was singing blues/rock.My mistake was when I got back to work and told my mates who I had seen, they were all serenading me wearing one glove (his trademark) they still take the "P" three years on.

Pleased about that, I was starting to get worried!

Try something new, doe's anybody have any tales about this place? Crossy or Pottsy might be a good bet!
-
Surprised nobody's mentioned Froggy Freeman yet!

How about the Great Fire of London?

They were good together,the backing was done by The Norman Beaker Band who do their own tours as well as supporting blues singer Larry Garner.
-
Anybody remember Chris Farlowe? I saw him in Glasgow at the weekend singing with scots lass Maggie Bell and the crowd wouldn't let them off the stage. Not bad for two old uns!

Looks like Gadaffi in his sewer pipe. -
Well if its really going to happen I'm just wondering if anyone's got Cheryl Coles phone number, co's she could always pop around to my hoose for the last half hour!

It is the station club and thats Jack Chapmans car who was the club chairman in the foreground, Iv'e spoken to a senior citizen from the station tonight and he confirms that the shop in the photo was a fish shop managed by Don Pattie (not sure of the spelling) Wales fish shop also had seats and the lads coming out of the pit used to go here for supper, so it looks like everybody's right. We've had two fish shops in the station with seats, if only we could fill them now!
-
Think I'll pop in here at the weekend, somebody's sure to know.
-
Keith, I took the photo's myself and have the date as 1980 on the coloured one
-
Looks like she's right again Keith, the chippy was between the chemist and Walters and she reckons it was later used as a small electrical appliance shop (in the photo) She's got the lip on cos I've started calling her Jeeves!
-
Here's a one for you Keith,My better half has just been reading these last few posts and she says were all wrong about the fish shop with seats.She says the one with seats was next door to the chemist where Walter Wilson is now and it was called Patties, she's probably right cos she's never wrong!

A dog loo sounds a good idea.

I was unlucky enough to walk down there on Sunday morning when the Grand Prix was diverted from Korea.The speed humps are too far apart and are doing nothing to slow down the traffic.

Congratulations,
