My aunty was a dinner lady at Norfolk secondary on Craddock road. That was in the 60's she always gave me extra cheese pie and extra puddings. I enjoyed the school dinners back then.😊

Steve Wright passed away. BBC radio 2 presenter of Sunday Love Songs.  R.I.P.

Have you ever tried to follow the subtitles? They are a waste of time. I also had many scraps with people taking the micky out of deaf people. 

Both my parents were deaf so learned to sign at a early age. I also taught a mate back in the 60's the basic sign alphabet he picked it up in less than 2hrs. I have always said it should have been taught to kids when they first started school. Sadly both my parents are long gone and I haven't used sign language for a long time. 

I think its a brilliant it should have been done years ago. 

I said that my friends phone only makes calls and can send text messages. And that he doesn't have internet on his phone or at home.

Thank you all for the replies. My friend can call me on his phone which is just calls and messages. It's my phone that won't allow me to contact him. Alan.

Hello Dromedary,

My bundle does allow international calls but I have to set it up on Asda account. I think then it will be connected all the time which I didn't want to do.  Thanks for the help given.

Hello HeHasRisen,

My friend doesn't have internet on his phone or at home. I already use WhatsApp.  Alan

The person I'm trying to call doesn't have internet and I don't use Facebook. Thanks for the replys.

Can I turn on roaming on my phone? I'm not very good with technology.

I'm needing some help please, I use a £5 bundle per month for free calls and free messages and 3gb of data.I'm with Asda mobile. It's a Samsung A10 phone.   I have tried to call and message a friend in Spain but it doesn't connect.  Can someone tell me what I need to be switched on to be able to make calls abroad. I hope I have explained myself properly. Thanks Alan

I had a friend who lived on Randall Street back in the 60s, Name of Walker (Billy). Lost touch early 70s.

Wards was a good pint. It depended what pub you was in. The Richmond on the Woodthorpe in the 70's and the Hawk and Dove same in the 70s. The landlords made the difference in the beer.

South Street Park district before Parkhill was built.

I lived on Waterthorpe and Gleesons built our house don't if any other contractors were involved.

Was his name Alan Beedham?

Hello gaz.

I knew Alan very well he taught me how to swim, I was at the Park baths on City road. Did you know Tim Lomas? He used to partner Alan when they was a tag team wrestling called the silent ones. Tim lived on the Woodthorpe and went in the Richmond Hotel. I haven't seen Alan for many years now hope he is well.  Regards Alan

I tried to apply for a bus pass yesterday but when I put in my email address I have 3,it said it wasn't a correct one I have used all 3 for many years. This is on my Samsung 10" tablet, I tried it on my Amazon fire tablet and didn't have this problem. Does anyone know how I can fix this? I can send emails using all 3 with no problem on the Samsung. Hope I have explained it ok. Thanks Alan
