      Not too many bands can lay claim to having had, at one time or another, 3 world class lead guitarists.

      I was beginning to question whether I'd been to see it or not! Then the dog, who jumped in the river on the way home, lay against me with his wet paws. God Bless Border Terriers.

      Denied. New junction was there, no A4. Running with Duchess of Sutherland, and it took the new eased out slow. Lovely.

  13. A nice little fact for you all - Manchester United, formally Newton Heath, was started by employees of the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway and they use to play on whats now Manchester Piccadilly station :)

      Are you sure? London Road was built around 1847, Newton Heath, as was, only formed in 1878 and played around Moston and Clayton before the move to OT.
