What a slimy looking bunch

Oh you're fabulous, this is great

When I was 13 years old (I am now 51) I went to the fair and paid 40p in order to throw a dart into some playing cards that were pinned to the back of the stall. The prize for hitting a playing card was to choose one of many different record albums that were displayed around the stall. I played and won three times and so was able to choose three albums. There was only one album there by some one that I had actually heard of, which was Indiscreet by The Sparkes, so I chose that one. The other two I chose purely because I liked the look of the album covers, those being, The Butts Band, and Third Light by Decameron. I gave the Sparkes album away shortly afterwards as it wasn’t really my thing, I occasionally listen to the Butts band album (Robby Kreiger and John Densmore from The Doors), but the Decameron album is something special and is played quite regularly. As a result of me playing it and raving about all those years ago my older brother is also a Decameron fan, he told me that one night when he had had a few drinks while listening to a Johnny Coppin album that he had rang Johnny up and had a conversation with him (he said that the phone number was on the back of the album). I have Third light on CD but unfortunately the sound quality is not up to the standard of the original vinyl, (Journey’s End loses much of its power) so I am now looking for a replacement for the original, because although I still have it, I am afraid that it is not in great condition, shame on me.

So sad this has now gone. Great childhood memories watching this

Lot better than the wishing fish clock

This was the second clock to grace the entrance to the market. The first one was positioned over the market entrance doors and was a "seconds" clock bought for £30,000. It was'nt to last long and, when it did brake down parts for it was imposable to find, thats why they had to buy the second Tailor of Gloucester clock. But hey, thats Gloucester council for you

this is the bit of chalford where all the foreigners live!!

It hasnt gone? Its been there years

its gone now removed this week

About 1993 I think

She's scaring the shit out of me!

Pregnant teenagers, heroin and crack addicts, lots of quality mobile phone, shoe and charity shops, and the docks where nobody wants to go.

FairPlay Gloucester's a dump!

My mam loves beatrix potter but sadly never had much as a child, so this year she's 65 and i'm starting a collection for her ,i've been trawling ebay and such i've manage to already get 5pieces ready for mothers day next month .hope she like it, but would love to take her to one of these shops

I remember going there when I was a kid! I'm glad it's still open!

i met this lady went on a ghost walk with her she awesome keep up the great work lyn :)

than fox hunting. I mean you're not going to tell me any different , just because you're a female are you ? As that would be a complete contradiction, because you love traditions so much.

@iianthaa I find it very interesting that you mention bonfire night, you do know this tradition has it's origins as a symbol of anti catholicism, in fact an effigy of the pope is still burned at a place in the south of england each year. I mention this as you obviously go to church every sunday, as it's a tradition of course. I guess you're an Anglican because of this, so it must make you're blood boil as women are now being ordained in the church of England, as religion is far more important -

@iianthaa I would also like to hear your opinions on other traditions, how about dog fighting? This was also a tradition here in Britain, just like bear baiting & cock fighting. It was widely practised for over 600 years on these shores, more than double the time span of fox hunting. It was banned as early as 1835. Is this a tradition that we should be bringing back with open arms? This is one of many examples I could talk about, society moves on thankfully as mankind progresses through time.

I have only just realised I never put part 2 up. It is now
