Remember when.....?

[hazada guess]

This thread is bringing back so many memories.

Hey Angel Blue,i remember riding an old trolleybus in Hull,with wires above the road and everything.Just before they got rid of them.Now that is giving my age away. (I was about 4).

[BigJohn]

In the last decade, the city where I live, bought some trolley cars that have wires up above. Some of the local people actually think this was a move forward.

Don’t remember Rip Torn at the cinema but I do remember Rin Tin Tin at the Saturday afternoon matinee.

Hey Hazzard are referring to the Trams. So I remember riding on one with my gran. Also about four or five.

Hi guys...
JOHN and RED... I couldn't stop laughing watching the "chase" yesterday as a question came up about some robot or other and one of the options was " Flash Gordon" LOL.
Anyway, the answer was "Buck Rogers" but then the chaser started going on about Buster Crabbe LOLOLOLOLOL.... Couldn't believe it !!!!!!

PODSHELL... So funny ... What a daft name "Rip Torn " LOL, But I DO actually remember the name !!!

HAZ... I don't remember that but then again I didn't live in Hull as a child. I grew up in a tiny little pit village on the outskirts of Leeds. We were lucky to have a 'oss n cart , never mind a trolley bus LOL...
( And we never ventured forth abroad into the big city so not sure if Leeds had them still ..)

I don’t remember having boys and girls entrances at school, but I do remember having to sit in assembly in a boys row and a girls row. One particularly temperamental teacher took umbrage to this, stormed off in a luvvy’s huff, and wasn’t seen again. She was a bit of a twit anyway.

I didn’t have to trek too far to school in wind and rain because I was quite lucky. All of my schools were within a 10 minute walk. I do remember being sent home once because the central heating at the school had broken. It was annoyed because I actually wanted to go to the lesson I was due to have.

Hi Neil....LOL... Teacher went off in a hissy fit !!!!! ( Quick, someone brings out the smelling salts, the teacher is having an attack of ones vapours!) Neil, you will notice I'm putting on my "posh voice " here , wot wiv you being a Sir and all that !!
Now come on , be honest , we won't judge, but when you say no more than a ten minute walk , was this through the grounds of Oxford or Cambridge ???? You really don't need to be embarrassed LOL...

[AngelBlue]

Ok , so how about this one....
Do you remember when the film "Jaws" first came out and did any of you queue up outside the pictures to see it ?? I went with my brother and can remember in the queue thinking that I couldn't believe I was going in to see a film about a shark eating people , and I felt quite sick. But I still went in anyway !
But I've got to say I was a little under-whelmed and disappointed at the lack of victims .
Only a hint of an attack for the most part and didn't actually see the shark till 5 seconds before the end . Talk about an anti climax , or is that just me being "picky ?"...
On a plus side, the film score from the fabulous John Williams cannot be denied and the opening scene of the young woman walking into the sea to her doom was promising .
But all in all it was iconic and a moment in my life that is etched in my memory box.

I often wonder where is all members gone and was some stuck time out some as took time out and might come back later on to believe if you're doing that's something you forget your password
But I have been learning a cards into a bit more and get some good answers
But yes there was a lot of activity on time especially again games even the ones I invented was a good fun even though once it invented like linen a third one her what is for dinner was a good one I'd want so much activity on that one either
But they were a long time ago
