ShiteRider Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 Can do a link as i'm on my phone but youtube "Journey around Burscough c1970 including HMS Ringtail" around 10 minutes in i live on the left at the bottom of the bridge. I'm in my 30's so was one of the last generation to play on the still mostly complete airfield. All but the hangers have been cleared and built over now.

barefoot Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 No pictures, just a bit of a tale. In Castle Donington lived Commander Dalby whose elderly wife used to potter own the main Borough street in the family P6. She used to simply double park it on the narrow, busy street and leave it whilst she did her shopping. We used to have another nutty old girl called Valgene, she used to ride a step through moped thing with pedals, but because she had difficulty restarting it, (she lived at the top of a long hill), she would leave it running while shopping in her crash helmet. local lads used to nick it for a tnrash round the block, but generally brought it back!Those were the days - late 70's early 80's mercrocker 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cavcraft Posted May 26, 2017 Author Share Posted May 26, 2017 That looks well familiar, can you walk across that higher level? Yes, it's our world famous 'rows'. Or toilets, as they're sometimes known at night Upper Bridge Street, early-mid 70's at a guess Some poncey wine bar on the left now (around where the Cortina is) and at the top of the picture (unseen) behind and next to the church are a couple of half decent watering holes.

Dick Longbridge Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 ^ It happened at a china clay pit locally, back when the Horizon was nearly new I assume. I really wish I could have been a fly on the wall. LightBulbFun 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
