  1. Being a nipper in the 70s and being a big fan of Horatio Nelson at the time, I was fascinated by The Buccaneer. I never got the chance to go in, but I always tried to look through the pavement level windows eager to get a glimpse of the the pirates drinking inside.
  2. I remember seeing you in the Star, I always wondered you were still rockin'.
  3. Does anybody know if A1 Turf Supplies are still in business? Tried to phone them using the number on their website, but a recorded message told me that the number had change, but there was no answer on the 'new' number. Anybody got any clues.
  4. An episode of it was filmed at Edward St. flats when I lived there. I remember it going on for a quite a while, partly because one of the hydraulic lifts spilled its hydraulic fluid onto the street. The fire brigade had to come and clean it up.
  5. I remember many years ago (the 1970s) a family friend was involved in a proposal to build and underground train line from Sheffield Midland to the bottom of The Moor. I believe it got as far as models of the proposed work going on display in the town hall. However as I said, this was the [early] 70s and I was a pre-teen so my memory might be exaggerating things.
  6. Ring your gardener and ask them. But I suspect we need a few more days of dry weather yet.
  7. He is John, he had a pulminary embolism and heart attack a few years back and ever since mum's had them both on a vegetarian diet, with regular gym sessions (at least they did until this covid malarky started)
  8. That's him 🙂 What name would he know you by?
  9. My dad was a driver for NCL (National Carriers Ltd) at the time, his beloved pushbike went up in flames.
  10. Maybe it was just used by my group of friend. We used it 20-25 years ago, I think it was introduced to us by a member of our group who came from Middlesborough. I always thought it was from that part of the country.
  11. Isn't "dropping the chimp" as in "has she dropped the chimp yet?" a euphemism for giving birth?
  12. What sort of folk music are you playing? Are you leaning more towards Foster & Alan or The Pogues.
  13. Here you go, it's the FaceBook group for Broughton Inn Rock n'n Roll nights. https://www.facebook.com/pg/BroughtonInnSheffieldRockNRollNights/photos/?tab=album&album_id=395599400469217 If you need more pics I may be able to put you in touch with a few people.
  14. How would I go about joining one of your ghost walks?
