RMweb Premium Barry O Posted February 2, 2019 RMweb Premium Share Posted February 2, 2019 I had heard that the Prince Of Wale Foxfield has been bought by Coniston Brewery.. but my source is a T totaller so may be wrong. Yes GDB.. watched some of the game..which was interesting. Notice England hanging onto players to stop them being "accidentally" off side. As for cricket.. crumbs.. are they getting paid???

RMweb Premium Barry O Posted February 2, 2019 RMweb Premium Share Posted February 2, 2019 Ian don't give up or despair!. I have found that, luckily , other than the odd photograph that needs re-setting the forum is starting to settle down. I seem to remember this is like the last big change to the site. it is a lot easier to set up exhibition events so I give it a positive....

RMweb Gold roundhouse Posted February 2, 2019 RMweb Gold Share Posted February 2, 2019 Its not so much the links but the whole viewing format I dont like. Will wait for it to settle down but I doubt its going to change the fundamental format much. Normally I am Ok with such changes but not liking htis one at all. 1 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We agreed there was no point getting anything less comfortable. We both agreed to wait until we found something we both liked. It took years, and we found what we liked in a shop we had gone into to look for carpets. We sat on some furniture to look at carpet samples and ended up buying the furniture. After waiting years, the 3 month delivery time seemed irrelevant. We have a 2 and a 3 seater in brown leather in prefect condition they cost 3.5k some years ago probably worth tupence now the problem is my back I can't sit on them for anything longer that an hour so they have got to go.

RMweb Gold Tony_S Posted February 2, 2019 RMweb Gold Share Posted February 2, 2019 Being uncomfortable in car seats affected my back so much I didn’t drive long distances for a while but getting cars with a more upright seating position helped a lot. The present sofas have backs that recline a bit if you push and seem to give lumbar support. Even when I bruised my tailbone falling down the stairs I found them to be comfortable. Some people don’t like them though. One of the problems we had is that Aditi and I are very different heights, she has short legs! I don’t think we are ready for the ones that lift the cushion up to help one stand though. 9 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baz I also watched the Ireland v England game. It was possibly one of England’s best performances for years and shows what they can do with their best players fit. Ireland didn’t play badly, but were battered for much of the game. Scotland v Italy wasn’t anything like the intensity or quality of the England game. As for the cricketers, the less said the better! Interesting that the Prince of Wales may have been bought by Coniston Brewery. I suspect they are less likely to develop it than other possible purchasers. 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Dave Hunt Posted February 2, 2019 RMweb Premium Share Posted February 2, 2019 Had a pleasant sojourn to a local coffee shop for a leisurely cappuccino, managed a couple of hours in the workshop, watched England thump Ireland whilst lying on a red leather sofa (me, not England), had a nice steak dinner and am looking forward to the Stafford show tomorrow, even though there is a threat of an infestation of hippos - so far a pretty good weekend. TTFN Dave PS, I don't really like the new format for many of the reasons enumerated by others but being one of the new kids on the block I guess I'm not best qualified to comment (kid? who am I kidding?) 7 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Known as the 'Burnt records' some have been recovered using modern methods. Only those at the beginning of the alphabet survived. I was able to obtain my fathers records as I found his army paybook after he died but both my grandfathers records were lost as above. Medal records are available and they give a brief summary of units served in. My grandfather's WWI records were found in the 'burnt records',his surname was Webb. Perhaps it was a Welsh alphabet A,B, W, C.... The only thing of note was his being confined to barracks for 7 days for missing a parade. 11 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dseagull Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 Back in the game after a few issues with passwords etc - Andy kindly reset my email address from whichever one I was using ten years ago to my current one! Hope the last few days have gone Ok for everyone. We have had snow which settled but didn't cause any extra days off, much to the disappointment of the kids, and now are collectively suffering from colds. Sal has suggested I paint a red cross on the door. Catching up with previous days postings now, so if you suddenly get a like from something you posted about two days ago, that'll be why! 9 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Tex 'n' Taz Posted February 3, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted February 3, 2019 (edited) Morning all from Tasmania. Well, it has been some time, went to log on and, site down. Had to go back to my original user name instead of Tassie Tex, I guess it doesn't matter, might find navigating the new site easier. So its good to be back and hope to start layout topic soon. Another GWR 00 gauge, unnamed at the moment, will be open for suggestions after posting some photos, need practice on that subject also. It has been two and a half years, 1; the area we lived in was a dead zone for the internet. 2; my health had put me in a reclusive state of mind, as most of you know a perminate sickness can put you in a dark place. Good to be back, Tex. Edited February 3, 2019 by Tex 'n' Taz typo 8 18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
