I only attended Rainhall Rd School for 1 year, then we came to Australia. I don't remember the school dinners there, even tho I must have had them, but I do remember Mother taking us for meat pies from the local shop on Fridays (I can still taste them, they were yummy). I do remember the milk we wer...

Oh dear, obviously not used for cleaning venetian blinds with then...

Best chocolate biscuits ever, and made right here in little ol' Adelaide.

Prince Charles and Camilla have left our shores today after a whirlwind tour, apparently they are well stocked up with Tim Tams and Vegemite.

The cappuccino is an everyday drink served in cafe's around the world, but the frothy coffee with a dash of powdered choc has exotic, mediaeval and monastic origins. It gets its name from the Capucin monks, whose habits are coffee-coloured. The Capucins are an order of Saint Francis of Assisi, set u...

Tiser was you're post about George Clooney meant for someone else?

I find a layer of clingwrap between each hole helps to keep them secure.

We have a new series called 'The Great Barrier Reef (All New)', if it comes to your tele I urge you to watch it.
It is truly spectacular and awesome to watch.

Looks like a wig worn in a courtroom, but is probably wool wrapped in a special way ??

Another question for you Doc, hope it hasn't been asked before and I've missed it.
How do you Bookmark pictures on this new site? I have many saved on the old site (which I hope are still there) but can't figure out how to do it on this one. Can the old ones be transferred over? Many thanks Cathy

Oh dear, another one of the best gone. They say he was still working right up to a couple of days ago. He had been very popular for many years working in musical stage shows. He was a young heart-throb of mine too. RIP Davy Jones

He's caught the last train....

Thanks Big Kev, I have just spent a lovely 1/2hour checking out Visit Barnoldswick. Very well presented site and oh oh oh so nostalgic.
sending you some

Crazy weather, it's back to almost winter for us. 24C the last two days, yesterday was a bit muggy, today was full of rain and cold (same temp!!)
Very tired today, I think it was because I couldn't go outside for long. Great sleeping weather tho

We've just survived 4 very hot days (34C to 39C), real stinkers. 27C for tomorrow and maybe a thunder storm

This is meant to be a true story (??) but I thought it was so funny it doubles as a joke... A nurse was on duty in the A & E when a young woman with purple hair styled into a punk-rocker mohawk, sporting a variety of tattoos and wearing strange clothing, entered. It was quicky determined that th...

Just a thought... Are these advertisers getting a free ride or are they paying to advertise on this site?
If they are not paying then what is the point?

Very sad news for you and your family Sue, hope you are OK.

Has anyone noticed the new Bakers Meaty Meals ads for dogs? It has high frequency noises similar to a dog whistle on it that only dogs can hear - apparently the ad talks to the dogs. Have you noticed a reaction to it from your dog?

HAPPY BIRTHDAY STANLEY
Doing anything special?

And Happy Valentines Day too.
What did the french chef give his wife for Valentines Day? A hug and a quiche.

I like the way her husband (ex?) went on stage at the Grammy's just 4hrs after she was found dead... NOT!

I reckon she couldn't face going into an arena like that where she used to belong and knowing just how successful she used to be and how she would be judged today. ??

Very good Gearce, very good

They haven't as yet said how she died, so I won't jump to conclusions, but what a shame for such a great talent to die so young.
There was a rumour that she might have been performing at the Grammys (this Sunday i think).

RIP Whitney Houston

Yes Stanley, it's a bit like our supermarkets telling us our vegies are fresh - fresh out of cold storage is what they should say.

Nice to see our replies are now at the top of the list and in order

We know pikelets as flapjacks ??
