    Couldn't have been better! Especially fond of the scene on the bridge over the River Ribble, with the bank building in the background, since I've often walked that way.

    Did Compo's flat come with extended storage?

    Looking at Google Earth, the garage seems to be between #9 and #11. I've spent far too much time looking at images of that area because there was a very affordable rental available at #15 and another, equally affordable, on Beech Street, second door up from the bottom, south side of the street...

    Did Compo's flat come with extended storage?

    Was that the garage on the uphill side of Hightown Lane? Last time I watched that episode, it seemed familiar, as did the doorstep that Clegg was sitting on.

    Did Compo's flat come with extended storage?

    Wasn't that the storage space supposedly behind Percy's (Dirk's) shop? I believe I recall Terry saying that the storage space was actually on Norridge Bottom.

    Did Compo's flat come with extended storage?

    Wasn't that storage space described in another episode as a washhouse? Those houses, with their odd over/under arrangements, must be a nightmare to insure! I've seen advice on the Holmfirth Community Facebook group that it's wisest to go to a local insurance agent. That's been after a buyer has...

    Yorkshire 25

    Since I was 40 years old before my first sight of the ocean, I still find visiting any seaside venue thrilling, and Robin Hoods Bay lived up to expectations.

    Car Prices in 1963

    In 1963 I was in my first year at university and paying for it with a stingy academic scholarship, so realistically, whichever one was priced the lowest. If I'd had my 'druthers, I'd have had the MG Midget, if you please.

    Can you name the episode

    Didn't Nora and Ivy meet Nora's house guest from Australia (Truly's adolescent crush) at Huddersfield station? While they waited, they talked about the posters that used to decorate the rail carriages back in the day.

    The Tank Museum / Tankfest

    I've visited that region, too briefly, and here's what I recommend. The nearest rail station is Wool. The Tank Museum and Monkey World aren't very far apart. Check TripAdvisor for accommodations and Traveline for bus timetables/stops. I'd choose to lodge near a relevant bus stop and not too far...

    All I can say is.... WOW!

    In this area, Janis Joplin's cover of that song got all the air play. I didn't even know about Kris Kristofferson until my sister bought several of his records. Then I listened repeatedly to several of his early songs.
