When I was at BGS I did Spanish for "o" level and our teacher was a bloke called Harry Halford . He was a real character , wore winkle pickers and drainpipe pants .He was a great teacher and made the lessons really interesting .One of his favourite tricks was to play us Connie Francis records in Spa...

Thanks all .... very helpful. Sounds as though the Church Lane route might be a bit iffy .Where are they sending the Todmorden to Hebden traffic ? I'll give it plenty of time ..just in case .

Foreverly Claret

Can anyone give me the heads up about the traffic problems at HB ? There have been some shots on our local TV ( Yorkshire ) but I can't tell where exactly the roadworks are .I usually come through Hebden on my way to the Turf and turn up Church Lane to Blackshaw Head but if Hebden is a problem I can...

Re KDB .Perhaps our accountant colleagues can tell us what HMRC etc should get from this .Must be around £ 160000 per week tax and employers NI on top around £ 56000 per week .I can understand that there will be ways that he can lower the tax take but I can't see how City could get round the NI .Am ...

If people cannot show a bit of respect for someone who has raised all this money for charity then I’m assuming you have some major issues in your life. Exactly !

I got the impression that for years the Directors didn’t take much out of the club. The club felt like it was being safeguarded under Kilby. The years of prudence led to healthy club finances that ended up in Garlicks fat pockets imo. The current lot have bought the club with the clubs own money an...

Do you have a reputation in your neighbourhood for being a bit gullible? No I don't and neither does my neighbour .As I said in a follow up post he was on the payroll at Leeds ; remains very well connected post retirement and usually gets the stuff relating to DL spot on . When he told me I looked ...

I really hope you are right .My neighbour was so chuffed . I had no reason to disbelieve him because he's pretty well up on what goes on down there...used to be on their backroom staff 'til he retired .Looks like there are others sniffing round so fingers crossed .By the way Casper , I'm not gullibl...

They that live by the sword...... I went to work in Leeds in 1963 and , having bugger all to do at nights ,I sometimes went to Elland Road if there was a match on.
