I watched a programme on it a while ago, I think it was called Made in Britain, apparently British pig blood hasn't been used since the BSE outbreak in the 90s. I...

Re: Old fashioned clean jokes
I met a Dutch girl with inflatable shoes last week. I decided to call her to ask her out on a date. I was too late though… she’d popped her clogs.

Re: WHAT ATTRACTED YOUR ATTENTION TODAY?
Susan and I visited the Barritts at Kayfield Farm yesterday and when we came away we continued on up the old road to Long Ing..... We saw the work on the housing at Barnsey..... It is completely altering the area and it isn't for the better..... Perhaps I am just an out of date old man..... I've no...

Re: Where Have You Just Been?
We took my mother to Boundary Outlet on Wednesday, initially she was overwhelmed by the size of the place but, after a light lunch in Bannister's restaurant, she soon settled in and we left with two bedding sets and a furry blanket. I resisted and didn't buy anything, the previous week we went in fo...

After that it was taken over by a girl's school, Lowther College, It remained a school until 1982 when it closed. Warner Hotels ...

Re: TODAY'S PENNINE WEATHER
Took me mother up to the bottom of Pendle Hill, it was showing as 32 degrees. It certainly felt like it when we stepped out of the air conditioned car.

She scrubs up OK for 87
