Great news, best wishes to you and yours!

Gee you would have to be pretty fit to get there without a ladder! Love the horses feet under the wagon, they must be used to waiting while all this went on.

That's quite an achievement, well done mate!

Beautiful photo Viv, any more? Cheers Tim

Thanks Frothy, sure shows I'm not much into that scene. Had heard of ELO and of course the Wobbles but that's about all. Oh Dear. Cheers Tim

Excuse my ignorance but who is Roy Wood ?

Maybe it was one of those deals "Buy three, get one Free! But only had three of the cheapie specials so gave them a quality one (from under the counter!

How did the bloke get up there? Did he climb up from where that ladder is as he seems to be wearing mountaineering gear and there is a lot of rope up there!

Looks like I have a problem. Thinking that the map was showing our house was hit by an incendiary, as it was, I was ok. Seems that it should have been a red spot because no HE landed on our house or anywhere that I consider "near". Our house was badly damaged, causing us to be evacuated in...

Thanks for the map Phil, sure looks like our house location. That box room was my bedroom as a teenager when we had a couple of "Paying Guests"!

There is one shown for Tillingham St Sparkbrook. Recon that's the one that came into box room at #7 and was thrown out the window before it became active. Was dealt with by the ARP warden and the streets stirrup pump. Cheers Tim

The Austin A90 Atlantic brings back memories!

Nice photo's shame you also have those b......'s with the spray cans. Mind you some are very good but there are better places for them. Cheers Tim

My sister Jeannette Ann Eborn went there from about 1944-1948. It seemed to be more concerned in the domestic side of life as I re member her making an apron and head band which was then used in the cooking class. Mind Jean was never scholastic according to our later life conversations and was...

We once had a Super Snipe, bought it third hand through a local mechanic here in Oz. Don't know how many miles we put on the clock and never missed a beat. Only had one fault, occasionally the bonnet would pop up, just that inch, this however was very rare, a lovely two tone paint job, BRG over...

I thought Jane Mansfield was the outstanding star in that film or maybe Little Richard!

Those were the days. Australia Post has recently increased the charge for a letter to $1,minimum within Aust. an increase of 30% with delivery in 4 days. Should you choose you can pay an additional 50cents (thus making the increase to over 50%) and have delivery in 2 days.

Think it was there that I saw that film "Cat Women of The Moon" about 1957. Those were the days!!

Maybe quite a few men were still waiting for Demob. On the other hand maybe they were a bit shy. Most of the men in the picture seem to be the kind who were more outgoing and are competent dancers. Maybe they were up the Pub getting a bit of Dutch Courage!

Thanks for the picture. I always feel a bit sad about the working conditions endured by the people shown. Any knowledge of my forebears remind me of my very humble beginnings, and in all honesty I can't claim to have climbed much higher. Both my parents told me of their childhoods which were...
