I'll tip for above and beyond and for a fast attentive service. Mainly just eating out but again the good service and food rule applies. I admire that you tip for your first pint but things are so expensive now. I can agree with adapt2it as I went to New York for 10 days last year and it cost me...

Could it be this? I found the tin for sale and advertised as a 1950's biscuit tin.

I came across this lovely pic that shows The Anchor public house.. it's taken from Bradford street but shows a little of Rea street in the background. I wonder what the occasion was? All looks very grand!

I know it's a long shot and the original poster was a guest who may not even use this site anymore.. but does anyone have any information on where this first metric house in Chelmsley was? I'd love to know. Thanks all.

The 'now' location I believe.

Not sure if this is already common knowledge so my apologies if already mentioned.. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c93wjgk2lwxo

Are these in the woods? Do you have any pics? Thanks

Great piece of film! And quite a good picture definition. Thanks for this I really enjoyed it.. on mute of course

Great Photo. This is the same view today

I must have danced to many of your sets back then

Yes it's still going strong. I was a regular in the late 90's / 2000's and always loved the friendly vibe there and the music for me was spot on. It's well worth a visit to sit outside by the canal on a nice sunny day. I always spoke of wanting a flat in one of the towers that tower over the...

Sadly it is gone and now houses stand in its place.

Great photos. Could somebody tell me when the 'tower' at the hippodrome was taken down? It's quite impressive. Was it taken down in the name of progress? ‍

Yeh this is sad news. I'm hoping someone else comes in and takes over. It's not the biggest place inside though so it may sadly prevent potential interest. But let's hope not!

Great photo! Could this be the now location? Holy trinity parish church - Coleshill street side? Obvious changes in wall height and supports missing. But entrance looks the same.

Thanks Mike and Viv. I'll read through it all when I get chance.
