Thanks for that. I did press "Translate" on my Google toolbar but it didn`t help much.

I didn`t realised that he worked in a shipyard before he turned professional.

We have had a "Memory Foam" mattress (not a topper) for over a year and it is excellent. It is worth trying various types in the shop but the trouble is that they all take a few nights to get used to. See this thread:- http://www.saintsweb.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=16982

Saw this at The New London Theatre last night. A staggering peice of theatre, brilliantly staged. The full sized horse puppets are brilliant. It is by turns exhilarating and heart breaking. The WW1 battle scenes are very well done. can`t recommend this highly enough. http://www.nationaltheatre.org.uk/warhorse

Do you think it may be man-management

Not necessarily correct. The RIGHT (good) players make a good team. There have been several examples of managers paying big money for good players who are unable to play together as a team. -
I have posted this on another thread but there is some fabulous stuff here, especially the early music scene in the city. http://www.davidstjohn.co.uk/sitemap.html

Weren`t there nine of them? That has reminded me of "Bob Kerrs Whoopee Band" who were a mixture of T7 and Bonzo Dog Doo Dah Band. We used to see them regularly at The Concorde. They were hilarious,
-
How many of them were there?? As I mentioned somewhere else, we used to watch the Courtelles (later to become The Shakedown Sound) back in the 60's. I used to work with their drummer Russ. We also used to have some absolutely awesome nights at The Railway in Woolston in those days too. They had a big room at the back with a decent stage. There was a resident band whose original name I can`t remember although I think that they changed it to The Script. It was always packed Friday, Saturday and sometimes Sunday night. I remember one time that they did "Born to be Wild" and had a rather large motor bike revving up on stage with them. Couldn`t do that in a pub nowadays!!

They used to do a cake called a "Cream Crisp" about the size of a small dinner plate which was just puff pastry and about 2 inches of cream and jam in them. They were lovely!! Mind you I can feel my cholesterol rising just thinking about them!! I remember as a very small kid seeing a western at The Gaiety. All I can remember about it was that it had the biggest bar-room brawl of any film before or since. Something else that was really magical when I was a kid was seeing in the Echo, adverts for the arious "Santas Grotto`s" that the department stores had, and then getting excited when I was taken to one of them. I think that, for a kid, the Edwin Jones (Debenhams) one was fantastic. Where has all that childhood magic gone nowadays??

Wow! A chip shop thread. My favourite was always Les` (later Mikes) in Burgess Road just down from the Crown and Sceptre. Les has been gone many years but the Chinese people running it now still do some of the best F & C in the city.

BBC South just reported that their new owner is considering legal action to get rid of SAF after his recent comments! Oh what fun!!!
