On this day, 60 years ago, I asked Patricia Davies for a kiss, and her Mum put her back in her pram and threatened to call the police!

On This Day

On this day 60 years ago I would no doubt have been wishing my sister a happy birthday. I would have been working as a Junior clerk in the Office of the Fox Mill - my first job (if it was a working day - if not probably out flying my model aircraft)

However, on this day in 1754 William Bligh later Captain of the Bounty was born; in 1087 William the Conqueror died from injuries sustained when his horse stumbled. In 1963 Jim Clark became the world’s youngest motor racing champion driving a Lotus.

Tune in tomorrow for some more snippets from history. Please feel free to add your own - please - otherwise we’ll all die of boredom. (I said it first so no one need add sarky comments.)

Terry.

Once a Lancer, always a Lancer!

I was airing a bit of knowledge gained from the T.V. only last week.
Apparently it was in Sheffield that a team with matching strip was formed. If you find out more info, please let me know, so that I can use it again to drop into the conversation when in sporty company. S.O.McK.
