Very sad news,r.i.p

I’ve recently obtained these three novels by Roy Clark and read the first one which was published in 1974. What is interesting is the additional information on the characters wives and their relationships,such as ‘the chuffing Pole’ being an employee of the Huddersfield Municipal...

I forgot to add that on Thursday after Breakfast we walked up the private road to see Cleggy,Howard and Pearl's houses,behinf the White Horse,Jackson Bridge. Vic

On Wednesday,my wife and I set out from Kent for our first trip to Holmfirth. Heath and I arrived at Holmfirth and found parking at the Co-op as all the smaller places were full. We walked to Nora and Compo's place and took a few photo's while I tried to absorb the fact that I was actually...

Hi, I'm sorry that I've only just seen this thread Maltrab as I've just now arrived in Lincolnshire after a couple of enjoyable nights at the White Horse in Jackson Bridge. I hope your stay is enjoyable, Vic

Thanks for your replies,only just back online.

But it was you how brought up Religion/Belief systems by mentioning the Navajo. Getting back to PC,do you think that LOTSW could be made now with three white men in the leading roles ? I think not. I'm not here for an argument bu was hopeful that free speech still existed. Vic

My personal concern is that we seem to be having to change rather than the various minority interested parties. They have the media on their side and any attempt to explain the way the majority of us feel leads to ordinary people being tarred as racist,sexist or rabid right wingers. Not long...

A legal minefield and companies will be held to ransom. There are only two genders,male and female.

The strangest PC situation that I came across was an advert that stated only Male/Female were eligible to apply for the position,which then cited some strange clause which allowed such an application to be allowed. We are expected to accept many things as the norm that years ago would be deemed...

Sorry,forgot to add; Male,aged 60.
