I like these old memories takes me back. I too was taught by Nun's horrible buggers used to punch you cane the shit out of you. We used to kick a football into a walnut tree in the grounds to knock the walnuts down. They were bit like a horse chestnut where as you had a green outer coat on the nut that was hard to get off and stained your fingers yellow. the Nun's made you hold your hands out if stained you got whacked with the cane. I was sort of lucky my parents moved into a housing association house in 1952 we had hot and cold taps but only cold water came out of both. That was unless

A friend of mine Harry who I met 71 years back in Primary school contacted me a few months back and as a result we decided to take a week's holiday in Corfu together. He's been a true friend over the years , we've always had a bond. My first memory of him involved him snatching a biscuit from my hand and putting it to his mouth. You could buy a biscuit for a penny at break time. I was too shy to ask the teacher, but the girls, thinking I was broke, would donate one each to me. Thinking I had more biscuits than I could eat, Harry decided to redistribute my wealth and snaffled one from

I must have been wearing some seriously rose tinted glasses during my childhood….it was unbridled adventure and happiness ! Living in a slum terrace in Newcastle City Centre, outside toilet, gas lighting , one cold water tap on each landing ! Playing on the bombed out houses, going down the Victoria bomb shelter tunnel and coming out dressed in Air Warden clothes, looking like an extra from Dads Army ! Then came the slum clearances and moved out to a brand new council estate maisonette in the suburbs. The air tasted “different “, the sky seemed bluer, walking to the farm wi

So we got to the North of England's nirvana on Sunday night and hit the town. We played the one armed bandits and dined on endless candy floss, toffee apples and greasy fish and chips. We slept in locked cubicles in public toilets on the road to Fleetwood and had an undisturbed but cold night. Next day we made a beeline to the amusement park and had never ending trips on the big dipper and dined on more candy floss and toffee apples washed down with lemonade. We met a couple of girls who were playing truant for the day and treated them to more trips on the big dipper. We were kings f

Isreal had total air superiority, they were bombing Iran with impunity. The Israeli AirForce was in the air on its way to finish the job when Trump called Netanyahu from Air Force One and asked him to call the attack back to bases ! Iran needed to save face and informed Trump of the attacks on the American base in Qatar hours before it happened and not a single missile got through ! ”Arses slapped “ ? ”Begging for the war to stop” ? You don’t know your Israel from your Iran mate ! LOL ! Cheers.
