Yes, I knew Mr Mchattie, I worked in the office, and of course Mr Dennis and Mr Eric. Enjoying the memories.

My condolences Steve, very sad. I left in 1972, I do remember a Diane, but maybe not your wife, not sure. All the best.

Think the one near market was Sugarmans, similar place, they did never never too.

Looking for advice on awnings, not had one before and not sure what sort to go for, not even sure how to fit it. (We have the wind out awning, looking to get a porch type ) It's for a motorhome, Any recommendations?

We had Furniss, Pictou, Morcar and Beaulieu. ( I think that was the spelling )

1965 Box Viva with a dodgy fuel gauge, never knew if there was any petrol in it 😀

No, nor to me! Thought it had a more interesting name. Thank you and Happy New Year !

Oh well, maybe it was, the memory is not what it was. Thanks for your replies.

Don't think so, doesn't ring a bell.

It was a lovely shop, they also sold wires and things to make earrings. Just wish I could remember the name!

Can anyone remember the name of the shop opposite Suggs that sold beads and things ?

My great grandfather and great uncle worked there, between the wars, and my Mum and Dad in the 40s , I have some old books in the loft I will look for.

Ok... ta. :-)

Does anyone know why there is a sign on Rotherham Road coming up from Eckington towards Halfway saying South Yorkshire Forest ? There are a few trees but hardly a forest!

Oooh.. I was ever so frightened of Mr Murton!!!

Mrs Maxwell was definitely at the juniors on base green when I was there, (1963_1966) I remember her very well with her victory v sweets on her desk!

Spare a thought for those that live near there.... ( It wasn't there when we moved 30 odd years ago) Can't get out of the end of our road, no-one will let us .... only advantage is we can walk to the peaks,.....just can't get to work

Hope they found Nemo!

I would certainly moan about pointless threads on the forum.

Thanks to everyone, ( well everyone who made sensible comments!) must have been the weather, 'cos its fine now :-)

Anyone having trouble with their TV signal tonight? Beighton area , we have no HD and some free view stations are rubbish! ( not that there is much on anyway !)

Good idea! thanks, but we managed to get some very reasonable, reduced in a sale.

Can anyone tell me the best place to buy the silver sunscreens for a motorhome windscreen? Seen them in the storage place, quite expensive, only other place I have seem them is on eBay, but delivery is a problem with that. Any suggestions?

Just think of it as an extra room in your house that you can take off and go to the coast in for a few days .

Thanks monzaman, some good motorhomes there.....and enjoyed a walk by the river!
