Regular visitor in the early 70's, enjoyed the caberet format, waitress service and pub style meals. Most memorable night was seeing Mud perform Tiger Feet etc. Also remeber seeing Helen Shapiro, my mate was besotted by her. Met a very attrative girl and having a dance to 10cc's Rubber Bullets.

Leicester History and Expats / Re: Murder on Elm Street
« Last post by Winker on Yesterday at 10:03:58 »
I came accross your post whilst reasearching my childhood memories of Leicester. I can't help with your enquiry, but I used to live with my parents on Elm street between 1956 and 1960ish. I was six years old when we left. Had fond memories of the area despite it being pretty poor at the time. Used to play with a boy called Paul who lived on the opposite side of the road. Used to go to the school on Green Lane Road. I remeber wiating to hear the factory hooter sound when it was time for the workers to retun after lunch. That was also our reminder to return to school. Interesting to think of these old memories.

Hello guys was just curious if you were selling a heroic Rag Kill yet.  Not interested in any gear just the title from the kill.  Let me know who I should talk to about this.

Thanks

This was quite well-known on my mission - and it was framed as evidence of his post-resurrection ministry, like in the Book of Mormon.

Hello if there is anybody out there I am attempting to write a book and include my time at Linwood Boys school. Attended between 1962 to around 1967 five years. I am now 69 and would love to gather more detailed information than my brain holds. Trevor Rhodes...with older brother Tony Dusty Rhodes...now gone to a better place. Thanks

I was wondering about that too. His disappearance was at such a convenient time. But then yesterday I heard he was in Kiev all the time?

Leicester Genealogy / Ashby and Gamble Taylor related families about 1810 or
« Last post by Barrysex on 23:59:09, 06/07/19 »
Wow, youve given me a LOT of information there Shona  Where did you find all of that so quickly?  I actually have quite a bit of it myself, but itll take me a wee while to sort through everything youve said to see if I can match it all up.

I wondered if there might still be Carswells or Campbells from those families still living in Kintyre.  Its probably time for me to pay another visit to the area.  Ive been to Gartnagrenach and Whitehouse - very beautiful, and visited various cemetries, but it was quite some time ago.

Many, many thanks.  I do appreciate the trouble youve gone to.  Any other information you may have/find would be greatly appreciated.

Regards
Doreen
