Onslow's latest activity

I don't claim to know about such things but I appreciate all the work. My last involvement with web hosting (really design) was years ago when I operated an Apache web server for a Wikipedia style (Mediawiki) knowledge base. Every once...

When breakdancing became popular in the 1980s, many lino shops made a trade of selling offcuts to dancers.

Lino is still on the market, but only in industrial quality. That means it's thick and very hard-wearing - think battleship linoleum. My local floor covering shop sells it, but I had a bit of a struggle persuading them to order it for...

I have to remember that lino (some of which is still in my house) had its golden era. It seems like it would have been a straightforward sales pitch for Clegg and in his more energetic years would have done well.

I think they are for services to the sales of linoleum because it takes a significant effort to sell it . People struggle desperately to ask for it , they come in store bright and bushy tailed , measurements in hand , colour in mind and...

As an admin member I would like to thank Tony and Terry for the great work they do to keep this site running so well. Speaking with Terry I realise how we really need more members to share the load and do what they can financially to...

A Peter Tinniswood classic and great series with John Comer, Liz Smith, Robin Bailey, Stephen Rea among others. As well as a guest appearance in an episode by "Mouse" from LotSW. This time he is not trying to get a free drink from the...

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.

That door is the summer wine exhibition entrance, & you can now at least, get through into Compos living room.

I'm not putting up a single video this time, but including a YT link for the group. Yesterday evening I spent with Jon Anderson, Steve Howe, Chris Squire, Rick Wakeman and Bill Bruford. I had their song "And you and I" spinning around...

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...
