Happy 80th Mike. I hope you had a good day.

Happy birthday Viv

Happy birthday Viv I wish I could do a fancy card.

My dad took us to Thimblemill baths on a Sunday even when there was snow on the ground. We were nearer to Harborne baths but my dad prefered it there. I liked it when the small pool was open. Julie

I absolutely loved it there. I knew keith who wore hockey skates and worked at the skate hire. And Robert Beard ( Bob) who looked so cool in his silk jacket. I bumped into keith a few years later and had coffee in Rackhams. I lost touch with both of them after Bearwood closed. I know it was...
