L.L. O.H comes from Roundhay. I grew up in Swarcliffe, not anywhere near as posh! Scholes village was about a mile across the fields, it was a nice place to grow up, going back with number 2 daughter to spend some time with my mum this summer she lives near the Coal road. Barbara..xx |

Ahh yes, Redcar. Only a few miles from where I live. If we ever fancy fish & chips, or an ice-cream we go over there :) I was born much further south though - slap bang in the middle of Huddersfield, Leeds, Halifax and Bradford. |

LL. The market at Gt Yarmouth is still there - have lovely chips !! The 'canal' you're talking about isn't a canal, but part of the Norfolk Broads. Personally, I prefer Lowestoft - less commercialized. Stella |
