As I have mentioned in other threads I have started, i can remenber lot's of places in Brum but cant put my finger on where they were situated, in the early 60s i used to make a delivery to Lyons and i am sure it was by Snow Hill Station, one cold morning the chef made me an ommelette but as i had a busy day i took it with me complete with knife & fork to eat on my break, to this day i still use the fork and it always reminds me of that cold winters morning all those years ago. :cool:

Hi Elizabeth, I had a date with a girl who worked there, cant recall her name, she was a dark headed girl, really nice looking if I remember rightly, i took her to The Jolly Sailor in West Brom, very romantic, ha ha,
