Re: O/T Bens toy shop.

It was Benns and I'm sure it was further up than Frydays, closer to Croft Street. Benns moved from their Yorkshire Street shop into the now Frydays shop a few years before closing the business down in 2006. Before they moved in there, 4 St James Street was the long established ironmongers, C F Harg...

Touching posts by Tony and Pimlico-Claret and some lovely deserved tributes to a great fun loving and truly dedicated Claret.

Re: Football related Fruit.

As below, this same theme came up many, many years ago in the old Clarets e-mail group :- “Somebody in the group asked the other day if anyone knew of another ten fruits besides Micky Mellon to make a team and offered a drink or two for the answer. Maybe they're out there somewhere but I can't think...

Re: Car advice again! This time security related

Was told by an Auto Electrician it's a more common occurrence than you may think with many makes of car. First thoughts would be there's an electrical fault, but it's generally down to inadvertent pressure on the key's 'Open Button' for just a few seconds when within operating range of the car. Easi...

Re: ARTICLE: The circus comes to Turf Moor

I'm sure I read somewhere that a circus did once appear at Turf Moor 50 or 60 years ago? Or at least the animals were paraded round the pitch but couldn't find the reference to it. Can’t say it didn’t happen, but as a kid brought up less than a couple of hundred yards away I don’t remember a circus...

Re: Cece"s Ice Cream

The Ceces’ produced a stunner of a daughter too, Yvonne, who changed her maiden name to Groom in the late 50’s /early 60’s.
Such a good looker that she was still turning out as a part time Strippergram Girl’ locally well into her forties.
