I used to have one except it was brass and hexagonal in shape but I'm damned if I can remember what it was used for.

Wrinklie, it may be just me but I'm sorry to say I find that animated signature very distracting as I read the page.

My thanks to both Ian and Stanley for refreshing my memory..My previous sig was a bit "in your face", sorry, hope this new one is OK

Afraid my rememberer ain't as good as it used to was. I've been wracking the old brainbox to recall the name of the barbers I had my hair trimmed at. It was on Albert road either next to the old post office or next door but one..Can anybody refresh my forgetter please

Hi Stanley

I have just used the map of Barlick to zoom in on 1 York Street where Nurse Barlow delivered me into this world...Having been exiled in Leicestershire since 1963 it brought back a lot of my childhood and teen age memories..
