They were session singers put together by Tony Macauley and Barry Mason, the writers and producers of the song, the lead singer was a guy called Tony Burrows. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wowzz and I know a great place......😁 It's not that bad of a run Harry, for us the average time is 1 hour ten minutes so very handy for a day at the coast . When we had the Caravan there a mate of mine lived in Cudworth Barnsley and if his Mrs had gone to their van with the kids during the holidays ,taking the family's car , he would ask could I drop by and pick him up from his house. The travel time from Cudworth to the coast was only around the hour and half mark from his doorstep to the van . The best travel time was a couple who bought a van .They lived down the back of Freshney place market in Grimsby ,they would lock up their house and spend weeks at the van .They said it felt a million miles away from home even though they were only 15 minutes away .

Oh hello again. I wondered where you'd disappeared to 😊, I was a little concerned. The courgette and aubergine chips sound lovely, I'm going to give them a try. I have a large rosemary bush growing in the garden so I'm going to give your version of chips a try too. Sis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've done very little except walk, read, sleep and eat! Excellent precautions on the fairly large site, felt very safe and we spent the afternoon yesterday sitting out on the balcony of the restaurant, with one of the Carnival ships on the horizon, eating scampi and chips from a box, washed down with a draught beer. Saturday morning was the first morning I've woken up since lockdown, without my first thought being about the virus. Didn't want to come home. My friend has just come back from a week in Paignton in a self catering apartment with a balcony. Looked lovely and I’m quite envious as my week away is booked for October. I know I’m going to worry about local lockdowns and the weather! We’ve got a sea view from our cottage though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sis Hi,just chilling out watching in mostly.We brought a load of Atora over with us veg and non veg and the fat and calorie content are the same,pretty high.Tonight my OH is doing baked dumplings with olive oil replacing the suet.Chicken and gammon joint to accompany.Remember that banana cake,she used olive oil in that instead of butter I think.We've got a bumper harvest of cherry toms now so have been reciprocating our neighbours generosity.When our friends sold their house last week they gave us loads of household items and what we didn't want we left outside our gate.I think a lady behind us took them cos next day her daughter came round with a bag full of fresh eggs from her chooks,brilliant eh.Cheers,will stay in touch more,lol,Bro. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare P&O SUE Posted July 14, 2020 #3185 Share Posted July 14, 2020 Must admit feeling a bit down about everything now, I don’t like not knowing things! I like to plan! Mostly I’m missing my grandson who my daughter in law to be has suggested won’t be coming to me until social distancing is gone completely and that seems ages away 😞 I asked them over this Sunday but they have plans - they did say they’d pop in on their way home. I’ve arranged for a friend to come round and have a coffee in my garden Thursday so that should cheer me up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My OH is 65 on the 9th Aug and her daughter,hubby and 2 kids are flying over to see us 2 days later.Her son wanted to come over a week earlier with the 9 month granddaughter but his Mrs wouldn't have it .I guess some people are more paranoid than others. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’ve got a sea view from our cottage though.As long as we aren’t stopped by local lockdowns we have a week in North Devon in October, sea view from the apartment. We’re planning on wrapping up warm if necessary and taking long walks on the beach and coastal path, I am so looking forward to it.Sent from my iPhone using Forums 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad to hear you're both ok. Sounds like a good life over there. I'm envious, I wouldn't want to come back here, ever. It used to be like that here years ago when I was young and lived in Staines. Good neighbours who looked out for each other. I'm afraid my tomatoes aren't ready for picking yet, but won't be long now. Then I'll be freezing loads of homemade pasta sauces with all the excess. Look after yourself. Sis 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were going for a picnic on daughter in law to be’s birthday last week but it rained hard so it got cancelled. She has a big family with lots of sisters so I feel we can’t monopolise them every Sunday! Our son works Saturdays.

Go to a pub, sit at one table, and all your family members, friends etc, can sit at tables either side of you. My Mum is now happy as Larry - she's off to the M&S cafe everyday to meet up with her friends. Is it right, I dont know, but I'm not going to argue with a bunch of 90 year olds!
