That's for those Pesky Blighters that come to Brum by that new tram system

Not the best looking bus I've seen I do not recall ever seeing one back in the day. I would like to see the front seat on the lower deck and the drivers cockpit.

How about some thing that was handed it at the tool stores

9/11 completely changed the course of my life I have been on the top floor of a tower the windows were tall and you could press your body right against them and look down, and it was a long long way. Anyone who has ever driven up the Jersey Turnpike knew to look for the towers off to the right...

I would have thought it would have a hole for hanging on a board if it was used as some kind of employee monintor. Some kind of ID to present in order to get a pay packet ?.

The whole cb thing was a very social thing many times I was amazed at the wide range of people who had them,. Keeping in mind my adventure at the time they were not legal and most of the time nothing of value wàs discussed. Just a bunch of folks jaw jacking to and from some watering hole. As to...

Lots of us had them before they were legal, we all would meet at a local pub also would hang out at a store called Deals on Wheels in Northfield then it moved onto the Pershore Road ?. Most of us were members of a car club. When we were driving and saw a cb whip we would call out "eyeball" on...

I missed out on legal CB Radio but along with many others I did not miss out on CB Radios. Back in the late 70's my handle was Super Skate lots of fun back then as we all used code for locations Some good friends with great handles, Rooster Booster, Wicked Chicken and so many more I sold a rig...

Love the little detail of painting the mirrors cream

One time I was at a Villa game and everyone sang Hey Jude. I read somewhere everyone sang "Always Look On The Bright Side Of Life" at Wembley Stadium one time.

The company may have been smiths, I am fairly certain most bus and coach company's had a similar situation where they would run these evening runs. Our deal was going on these tours we would get served as we were undeage.

How about those mystery trips on a Saturday night Pay 5 bob a coach would pick you up in front of the news agents and off you would go I think the coach co was Andy's, you had no clue as to the destination untill you had been on a couple of trips. The trip always ended at a pub out in the...

Small things forgotten over time untill I read the post the RSPCA collection dog, well spotted sir.

Getting old I remember Mason's as a butchers shop.

Hiding the Co-Op bike was something we took great pride in. Short back and sides, steal a glance at those certain publications.

I do like the look of these new trams and the colour change was needed over the disjointed look.

When I talk to my pop tomorrow I will quiz him for info, it seems to me at the moment this tram line idea was looking for a landing spot and Wolverhampton was it, may be I have been gone to long ?

So one line Brum to Wolverhampton ?
