My wife, Pat Billam used to work behind the bar, anyone remember her?

The BBC series, The Survivors, it was just dropped, it would be rather relevant to today s problems. I remember the old series, I cannot remember if that had a conclusion.

Sorry, not sure.

Many thanks, it would seem the book is out of print, I have also tried second-hand book shops with no success.

Many thanks.

I am looking for a book, As Hard As Nails by Josh Johnson, it is about Phil Milner, my wife learnt karate with him in Chesterfield, she was a black belt second dan, it would be a great gift for her.

Graves Park, Leave your memories here
Billam replied to canadablade's topic in Sheffield History & Expats
There were five of us, me, Roger, Paul, Dave Smith and Barry Falcon. We all played for the same football team, holidays, 67/68 we went in a caravan in Yarmouth, 69/70 we went to Jersey, during the summer, after work we were in the Park footballing, also Sunday afternoon, I had a portable record player, when it got too hot I,d play records, we usually went to town on Saturday night. My cousin did a disco, two nights at the Fleur De Leys, Totley, two nights at the Olive Grove, East Bank Road, we had some great times. In 1971 we had an argument and I went my own way, pity but great memories. -

Hi Linda, I did walk you home one night, you phoned me at work, T C Harrison and invited me to an all nighter, I couldn,t go, that was the last time I saw you. If I remember right both you and Shirley had black hair and wore leather coats. I last saw Paul around 1995, he still lives at Woodseat s and is in the phone book, I keep promising to go over and see him -

I used to work at Kennings, Sheffield Road, Chesterfield, Tom and his wife used to bring their car for servicing. We used to call at their pub for a drink, lovely couple, always had a chat, brilliant pint in a proper pub, great memories of great people.
