Sharon Cooper

Remember going to an all dayer there, must have been between Aug 74 and May 75, with my mate, Janet. I reckon we got a bus there from Maid Marian way bus station in Nottm after an all nighter (vague facts not getting any better with age!) By the way MAK, did you buy owt interesting at McArthur Glen? (No I`m not stalking you!!) Sharon

Know them both. Heard LJB`s version on `SOTS` Think they are both boring!

Me: 73 - 78 Chris: Circa 71-78 Probably to do with me being 15 in 73 and Chris being 18 in 71 The perspective of youth from middle aged `uns like us gives a completely different viewpoint of `Halcyon days` though!! S

Now then, Now then! He was out of HIS head. If he'd been spotted in a THONG we would have all needed something he was on!! Aahh ! Happy Days!

Best dance competition I ever witnessed was at Cleethorpes circa 75 when my boyfriend/husband to be was spotted in the throng of would be winners so out of his head that he didn`t know he was even in it!! Poor lad : Grown up a bit since then!! I think

Its sometimes hard to know whats the worst; the man or what they leave in their bed pans! IMPO (Have a guess at that abbreviation!)

I would agree..My owd fella's got a copy (not for sale though! sorry!) and he's kept plugging it around these parts and slowly more and more are getting up and dancing to it (Its got quite an unusual dance beat I reckon but I still love it )

Sorry if my comments have already been said elsewhere..Haven't got time to read through the whole thread..Anyway..I just think that its nothing more than a town council jumping onto any old band wagon as is done in loads and loads of places throughout the world. My own home city of Nottingham lives off the Robin Hood legend and to a lesser degree the glory days of Forest. We went to Missouri a couple of years ago and much is made of the jazz heritage in Kansas city (About 70 miles from where we were staying) with museums and the like. We spent an evening in a jazz museum/themed bar with current live jazz acts which was ace and very well done. I suppose the only thing about the Wigan coffee shop that it will eventually prove to be a bit naff and perhaps run down as a lot of these type of places have a tendancy to be (In keeping with the original place I suppose! and I did go before I get clobbered )

Totally agree. Posted this up on my blog a while ago as I echo your sentiments exactly

Destination unknown; Delrays inc. Classic start up!

Rock Your Baby - George McCrae Feel the need Detroit Emeralds and Temprees At Last

3rd stupid window from the right

Thats it! Thing is now the thing keeps going round in my head! (A lot of space in there)!

I've given it a lot of thought but will have to agree :closely followed by that Lou Rawls thing (I'll post up when I think of the title)!

I've not heard it played around. Good sound though. Take it Mrs Bazza's not a Chicana then??

Seems like she had it in for you Bazza! and all of us come to think of it! What have we done to upset her??

oops!!

Many of the folks involved in the civil rights movement of the sixties were brought up in the church and would be familiar with this verse from 1 Timothy. In some church circles, especially the Pentecostal and Charasmatic churches, it is still a popular phrase. the words "hold to the deep truths" are dropped in favour of the shortened phrase. KEEP THE FAITH. Its shortened version has been used by Christians for centuries. this is the earliest 1 Timothy 3:9 They must keep hold of the deep truths of the faith with a clear conscience. So, 'keep THE faith'
