Theakstones Old Peculiar… Trooper….. Newcy Brown… Guinness.

Falling off the ladder into the river Holme?

Love the red one.

I have this old ( dirty :( ) phone that I must have had for about 40 years, it has an excellent ring but the days of using a finger to dial slowly are over for me!

I have shown my collection of ghetto blasters on another post before but on Saturday I bought this 1952 Bakelite radio for £2 at a boot sale mainly for the reason the make is my surname , missing the extra M but you can’t have everything. It had a crack on the front that I have filled and I’m...

Spanish Gold sweet tobacco and Gold Nuggets gum.

I saw yesterday that the tour has ended as they couldn’t find anyone to take it on and Colin has retired.

One of Compo’s relatives getting nabbed by the Sheriff of Nottingham prior to his release by one of Billy Hardcastle’s direct descendants. :) All good fun on Talking Pictures TV.

I still have all my old punk vinyl, I have sold a few items but I’m keeping most of it. I’m still listening to cassettes, I have a little collection of old blasters and can’t resist buying old radio’s from charity shops if I like the design.
