Of course we had identity in the 50's - what about rock & roll - this was the rock & roll era - Rock Around the Clock, bopping in the cinema aisles, the bopping corner up the Majestic, snoggin up Letcliffe, and in the double seats on the back row of the Majestic pictures - it was a great tim...

We did not have any snow last week in Scotland, but the winds were particularly cold not much rain either. Lovely day up there yesterday for our journey back, but as usual ran into cloud when we got near Preston.

We saw a white pheasant too in a field with other normal ones on the road between Moffatt & P)eebles last week. Yesterday as we were packing up to leave Moffatt we saw 2 lots of geese flying south, must have been over 100 in each skein.

You have all been busy whilst I've been away. Chicken & black pudding pie for tea or corned beef cottage pie, have not decided yet.

Meters or Filofaxes? I have never had one.

Duck breasts in a plum sauce, roasties & garden peas.

Another beautiful day - feels like Spring!!

Go on then!!

Another good one Stanley - brings so many memories back for me. All the children used to go into Albert & Ria's chippy for a slosh - a portion of chips covered in mushy peas.

Tin tent back from service, so cleaning it etc ready for our first trip.

Hanging out my washing for the first time this year, mopping the kitchen floor and going to visit my sister-in-law in the care home she is in in Accrington.

I cannot remember when they came last year. There will be some more shortly 2 frogs are getting amorous in the pond. Strange how much bigger the female is.

Chilli, jacket potatoes and garlic bread tonight.

When I come on site the greeting varies between Welcome moh you are here at last or good morning Moh what a lovely morning it is - well at least it is correct today. Blue skies and a gentle breeze. (I've been here a month not just arrived!!)

The policeman who Moat blinded has been found dead at his home - what a waste of an active life.

The first frog spawn from our 'homing frogs' has been deposited in our pond.

Sausage, mash & onion sauce tonight, last night was chicken piri piri, chips & peas.

Mild again - supposed to change on Saturday, glass is stuck in one place.

Yes good luck Julie, hope they go well.

I see in the paper we have the highest taxes on diesel in Europe, 8th higest on unleaded.

Was very misty here earlier but a slight breeze has got up and cleared it slightly, very damp though.

Sounds like you are more busy in retirement Nolic!!

Why has newshound suddenly taken to putting topics in the active forums?

This seems to have got lost - are people still voting or have we decided?

That's what friends are for.
