    Words from yesteryear

    The insults in SW got me thinking, what words do you remember from the past which have gone out of use? Berk and pillock are two that spring to mind.

    LotSW link to Laurel & Hardy

    We're slowly making the way through the Summer Wine DVD box set and one episode we saw recently had a snippet of Laurel & Hardy music. I believe this is because a woman in the scene is Stan Laurel's daughter. It got me thinking that a similarity of SW and L&H is that a core theme in many...

    The Old Bridge

    Unfortunately not. Over the years we've only seen each other occasionally and that was usually somewhere halfway between where we live. I went there once for a gathering but didn't get to see the town.

    Maybe of Interest to You

    I'm not far from Mablethorpe. Have they picked there ironically because it was the butt of several jokes in the series?
