About the same time but in REME, 9th March 53 rail travel warrant to Honiton in Devon, six weeks there then trade training at Norton Manor Taunton (Now the base for the Royal Marines), then off to Egypt, Moascar/Ismailia and later El Kirsch.

Had an email yesterday inviting me to view 'lots of naked ladies' ............not tempted.:)

My experience is the same a devonjim's I've been with talktalk and their predecessors since the outset and it's always worked, however you need to be aware that ALL the broadband companies are aiming to take a bigger bite of the cherry in April so it will be a challenge to find a better deal...

I remember the shop advertised on the tram Pond's tools where we used to get on the tram from Perry Bar to six ways Aston.

That certainly looks to be designed by the same architect and of the same period.

My ma in law called the dustbin the miskin, she was of Irish descent maybe it's form there.

It's been that way for a while Lyn, I mentioned it last year I think, Hardly something to get worried about though. :)

Thanks for all the greetings, been a good day..................but my birthday's tomorrow. the 3rd.

It's The Sun so for the moment nothing more than gossip.

There's a good history of the company here: http://www.austinmemories.com/styled-4/index.html

Maybe a Watsonian sidecar.

I worked for Watsons at the place in the pictures with the Granville Street Garage signs, the signs and the rounded top doors weren't there at the time and I left in about 1958. The battery company had it ventilation system output into the passage so it always smelled of warm acid. A funny story...

That old "We have a fortune we want help with moving." scam is still on the go, had one this morning a long email from some named lady. in the bin immediately.

Maybe the ladies making a delivery. In November 1939, Commander Pauline Gower was given the task of organising the women’s section of the ATA. The first eight women were accepted into service on New Years Day 1940, initially cleared only to fly Tiger Moths. They were Joan Hughes, Margaret...

Thanks Brummy-lad I never got into using Kelly's. Mac's used to specialise in fixing up insurance write offs and selling them back into the trade, real skills there.

I think also that it is the Ford coupe , the rear bumper is typical Ford and the 'pram hood' with the fittings that are on the exterior are pretty rare on cars from that era, I only know of Lagonda and AC that had that and their body lines are entirely different. I think the crease look on the...

Victoria Road businesses are lost on me, my aunt Ada lived down at, I think, No 206 and later in life married her second husband a man named Alf Mc Divitt who had a car repair business called Mac's Motors further up towards Six ways but I've never found a mention of it anywhere.

That's the one Lyn but I had Bridge Street in my head and I knew it wasn't that. :)

I used to buy a chunk of cherry cake on my way down from the Villa Cross to work in Villa Street, there was a shop in the road leading down, can't remember the name of the road or the shop. :confused:
