off to bed again now - having trouble sleeping tonight!!

I know Ferda house but don't know if they still live there - the shop closed a long time ago and I know that they are into acting - involved in performances held outdoors in Duffryn Gardens - the shop is now an up market hairdressers! Tesco's has the grocers on the corner and Bests Fruit and Veg shop sadly closed a few months back - everything else there much the same. Village itself looks essewntially the same but there are a lot of different shops now.

With regard to this memory thread - we'll have to hope some clever person comes on board with some good ideas - I'm sure there's someone who'll know what to do - it's all very well having ideas - putting them into practice is a different ball game!

Oh, I am sorry; I have completely got off your thread.
Yes, I really do think that somehow putting all our knowledge together would be a really worthwhile task.
Could someone set up a specific site with password, and Genes' members put their notes onto it?

They lived in No.3, second one in on the left as you turn in from the shops.
They were there for about ten years after they left the Vicarage in Neyland.
Oh, happy memories

Did you know the Ferdas who lived immediately opposite, and had the dress shop round the corner? Does Peter (or his ex-wife) still run it?

just down the road from me - park on the end of St Margaret's when I go shopping at the shops by the library! small world ain't it - glad you like the idea

Good moaning, Anne.

Think this is a damn good idea.
Please don't ask me to collate it tho; it takes me all my time just to type on here!

My M/PIL used to live in Whitchurch; St Margaret's Road.

Well I think it's a great idea - don't know about the rest of you. We have here some excellent well written stories, a snapshot of the past. How about someone with the knowhow collating them and making them into a book in order to raise funds for a charity? Say Alzheimers as a suggestion seeing as the stories are about memory! Anyone agree?
