A money shop…. all the banks have disappeared!!!!

We still have a butchers, the fishmonger has gone but there’s a great one up the road in Macclesfield. The local diy shop closed last year and it was a good one not like the current trend for some ( not all) of the substandard crap for sale at the ‘around a pound’ type that seem to have taken...

There used to be one of those in Leek called The Home & Colonial Stores, it was a great old shop set on 3 levels and you just went down and down. Sadly it closed a few years ago. Definitely like something out of FOTSW!

… well I did say it was vague. The blue ribbon song in the advert was sung by Mike Berry who replaced LOTSW’s Trevor Bannister in Are You Being Served?

Get a blue plaque on it pronto!

Tree houses, catapults, air guns, knife/ axe throwing, campfires, digging “foxholes” into the sandbanks, jumping the river, walking in the river as far as we could physically go, rope swings over said river- usually ending up in it, camping, racing go karts down the slopes on the sand hills...

I’ll go with Mars Bar by the Undertones -I still have this on green vinyl :)

A nice bit of the Peak District in this video.

We got a new addition to the pack just before Christmas so I think Nipper is happy to get out of the house. Little spud left at home.

Saturday night and a visit to the pub with Nipper and I’m in me wellies….. no turn ups but living the dream :)

It was -7 here this morning too. I’m not working tomorrow, decided to wait until Monday when it should be a little better.

The things I do… there you go… complete with hammer :)…. legs are freezing now.

I was but I was at work- still wearing shorts :)

Rain turned to snow, that melted yesterday causing a bit more flooding and this morning it snowed again.

I still like Galaxy.. Cadbury chocolate has been ruined.

Nick Park loved this sketch …

Evri is very good where we are. We have the same guy Michael who knows everyone and seems to be working 24/7.

HNY to everyone. Constantly raining all last night (Cheshire) and this morning woke up to find a majority of the roads around here under water. I hope it hasn’t been too bad for you elsewhere in the UK although I know parts of North Yorkshire and Derbyshire have been particularly wet.
