Does anybody have experience of tennis at Nottingham. My wife recently commented somewhat out of the blue that she had never seen a tennis match. That is hardly surprising considering she doesn't like sports.Wimbledon would of course be the ideal choice but I feel it would be rather stressful...

Nothing to stop you trying, though

it is beautiful on the west side. we went fishing there just over the USA border many years ago. some awesome landscapes. Forgot the actual name of the town we traveled through or where we stayed, too long ago. But we did catch two good size salmon of which we had shipped home in ice.

Perhaps we should do the same with some of the yobs that roam around the town centres in the evening looking for trouble.

Glad to hear you're on the mend @Jiffy . Your pics give me the ' horrors'.Please stick with patting kittens or puppies from now on.

We have a fortnightly delivery from Sainsbury's for the bulky stuff (never meats, fruit or veg as I prefer to choose my own because I'm fussy ) and get the first delivery at 6.30 a.m. That is always free as long as the order reaches £40.Except in an emergency my shop visits are for when I'm...

Thanks for the info FC. Oh deer, if it's stronger than beef I think I'd best give it a miss.

£75 well spent in my opinion, looks considerably better with a fitted panel than tiled

Again same response. Thank you so much. Appreciated. Will go get some fleece instead. What an excellent site.

Not quite the same if you want to retire in New Zealand. You have to be able to invest 400k for two years in the country and also have 250k to available cash and 30k income. Even that only gives you a temporary resident visa.

As a member of a railway family (my dad, grandad and uncle were all railwaymen) I like to see the old steam locos on the go.
