And we've had some pretty good Australian Programs - A Place to call Home, 800 Words (Pity they didn't continue after series 3), Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries, The Doctor Blake Mysteries, Doctor Doctor (Renamed 'The Heart Guy' over here) and of course Neighbours and Home and Away are still going!

Certainly did!

Unfortunately there are very few of the original houses left in Glover's Road. However, as luck would have it, the one my great grand parents lived in in 1901 (no.64) still stands: As this would have been almost opposite 79 I think it reasonable to assume that property would have been similar...

Hi Lyn The top one has appeared before https://birminghamhistory.co.uk/forum/index.php?threads/tidy-up-please.39763/post-600260 I don't think I can improve on that. The other one I've reduced the contrast a bit which I think helps(?).

First Attempt:

Re post 1 - not sure what address was posted as it has been deleted :( but the correct one is (assuming i have the correct stephanie from the Elan web site)

Stephanie - have you also looked at the thread Birmingham's water supply? - https://birminghamhistory.co.uk/forum/index.php?threads/birminghams-water-supply.1551/ The photos I posted in #63 (page 4) of the Claerwen Dam under construction may be of interest if you haven't already seen them.

I didn't misread it Eric - the bit in italics was cut and pasted from the article. They have obviously realised that they have made an error and changed it! :confused:

See https://tinyurl.com/yybje8o4 Now I'm confused (again!) I thought the idea was to ban older polluting vehicles especially diesels. However the article states: Diesel cars older than a EURO 6 (manufactured before 2015) and petrol cars older than EURO 4 (made before 2006) are exempt from the...

Sister Monica Joan is played by Judy Parfitt. Lorna Doone 1963 was played by Jane Merrow.

Had a go at the first pic without much luck. Separated the girl from the photo but I can't find any detail around the eyes so this is the best I can do.

Re Burning DVDs - after several failures using Windows burner I now use Ashampoo Burning Studio Free and so far it's proved to be 100% reliable. https://www.ashampoo.com/uk/gbp/pqu/7110/burning-software/burning-studio-free

I've also tried to attach the copy of the original but it's too large. I'll try and reduce it and try again! Second attempt - seems to work although it appears to need saving to the computer before opening. Let me know if you can open it OK.

Address now added to original post.

I received a photocopy of the letter and a transcript which Manx National Heritage have kindly given me permission to post on this site. Their deposit reference number is MS 14532 The date on the postmark is a little indistinct but most likely 1944 (or maybe 1941) and as far as I can make out...

I did Latin at school - even passed 'O' level. However I've yet to find anyone who speaks it fluently - even the Gladiators outside the Colosseum can't!

I seem to remember that they were silver (or rather aluminium paint). There was one just outside my house which I must have looked at for 20 years but can't guarantee I have recollected the correct colour!
