I recall Wilko Johnson (Dr. Feelgood) having this. He refused medical treatment and was surprisingly given the all clear a year later.

Thank you beddie...

Woke this morning to find all my hair gone, teeth loose, and lots of wrinkles... Been like that since my 20's so nothing much changes.

Anyway... I'm only as old as the woman I feel...posting.php?mode=reply&f=2&t=72986#

What a fantastic dump it was it was just around the corner from the north street baths and Barden school were I went from 1977 to 82

Indeed it was, many a character in there.

I was at Barden '75-'80

March 1978 at the age of 14... Went with mates to see Saturday Night Fever which was X-rated, unit-4 Brierfield. As we got in we chanced a half and got served. After we went to the Wigglesworth Arms next door and bought my first PINT. Then off to the Baltic and Old Duke, only to be turned away... Wi...

Turned down an engineering apprenticeship at BEP, to my dad's dismay, and went to Blackburn College to do Computer Science OND. Worked in IT (new name) since 1980 (Hepworth Ind Plastics in Hapton), and now ready for the slag heap... My current role is worldwide so I've seen a fair bit of this planet...

In the late 80's I worked at a large bank's data centre which had a swimming pool build around the machine room which header the pool water... or that was the theory. The said pool was never used as the unions got involved and vetoed it, as non-centre personal couldn't access it due to it being a se...

There's a notice on the doorstep
saying "welcome unto thee".
It's a note from Bl@ckburn Rovers
saying "we're going to Wembly".

Don't believe 'em, don't believe 'em
for it's a a pack a lies.

If it weren't for B@stard Rovers
this would be a paradise...

Not allowed to stream commentary over t'internet, so if you're like me and not in FM range... Buggered!

And I can't get Claters+ going either.

Played cricket at Junior school level (Heasandford) but it wasn't on the curriculum at Secondary (Barden).

Wasn't until 20 years later I picked up a bat for my works dept in an inter department league that I got interested again.

I stopped listening to R2 quite a while ago. I'm a convert to Greatest Hits Radio, which seems to be R2esque from the 80's.

Have to say though it's getting harder to tollerate the nonsense ADs.

Nice selection of resturants and bars, and good for scenic walks.

Rumour has it that George Martin wanted the White Album as a single and not a double but was shouted down by Lennon. Great album but some very strange tracks laid down.

I played with Dave Jones when he was Saints manager, he used to bring some of the squad for lessons.

One thing when starting to play that I can't stress more is to find a good coach and take lessons. There's too many bad habits to pick up, grip is just one of them.

My dad wasn't interested in football and it was my mum who took me on the Turf for the first time, to see Chelsea play. Would have been in the late 60's. Moved down south and brought up 3 Claret supporting boys. My youngest played a half-time game for Saints v Burnley when he was 10 and still remind...
