I shouldn't have read this thread, my mouth is watering.......what about my favourite meal in the whole world, pigs liver!!! Oh how wonderful, lots of onions & bacon & gravy.......I'm starving just thinking about it:D Yum to some of the other things on here too, lardy cakes, faggots, rice...

I love my sub of this magazine, I've been getting it for a long time now. When I've read it, my Mom & Dad have it & I'm forever saying to them that they should write an article & send it in.......but do they?? Trying to get them to put down their thoughts & memories is like pulling...

Just reading this thread about the bombings certainly brings back the memories doesn't it........I've got goosebumps all over my arms now & feel quite shivery:(. Another one here who was in the city centre on that night. I'd just walked out of New Street & was about to get my bus home when the...

My Mom still says that Charlie, & her Mom taught her that little gem. Must be a Brum thing eh?:D:D

Ta Wendy, I suppose I always think of the centre as New St & up to my favourite area the Town Hall, Colmore Row etc. Funnily enough I dont think I've ever walked to the Jewellery Quarter!! Will try & get there when I pop down (probably May or June).:)

Wendy.......I might be popping down to Brum soon & would love to go & have a look around Key Hill. How would I get to it from the town centre?? Would love some directions please if you can.......I know the main areas of the city centre but could do with some details of streets to amble down etc...

Here's a couple of photos of Livery Street......:)

Oooh yes, I remember that Michael, there were several incidents over the years where houses were robbed because someone would get into the lofts & get down into the houses one at a time!! I cant remember the number of my cousin's house but they were the Bennetts. Its funny how altho you clearly...

I dont suppose there's the faintest chance out there of anyone remembering this shop on Cooksey Road?? I knew it in the early 60's. It was up 'our end' (eg nearer the Golden Hillock Rd end rather than miles down the other end...if that makes any sense at all:D). If you walked down Cooksey Road...

I've just re-read the whole of this thread & its brought back sooooooo many memories. I wasn't a great one for 'clubbing' (too strict a father & mother!) but I do remember many of the ones named here, Bloomers, Beer Keller etc (& the Custard House postie!!) & of course the Gary Owen Club which...

Its so sad to read about this sort of mess in graveyards etc isn't it. I went thru to Yardley last year when we were down in Brum for a few days & my first impression (after not being for quite some time) was how clean it was looking!! All the gardens were looking well kept & the place looked...

Ok 'all seeing young postie', come on........spill the beans!!:)Mind, its not difficult to work out if you're a local to Small Heath.....so come on then.......do tell.:D

Yes...........how did you know???? :D

I remember this place postie, I used to live more or less opposite this place. Never went in mind.......just observed as a kid.:)

Oh I love those pictures of the old buses......how brill eh? Anyone got a picture of a No 28 bus or an Inner Circle 8?? Such fond memories.........I used to be one of those saddos that collected 'reversible' bus tickets when at school. I'm sure I've still got them somewhere!:D

Just found this thread on 'search'. There were loads of photos from Saltley Grammar on Genesreunited last time I looked. I was a pupil there '68 - 75' & then went back & taught there very briefly in 1980 for a term. Oh I loved that school, many many happy memories.:)

Absolutely fabulous photos, thanks for the link.:)
