being about 70% deaf, I really appreciate the library's effort, it saves me having to worry about my hearing aids batteries 👍 (Got the picture off FB) #deaf #hearingloss #books #audiobooks

@churchcat.bsky.social Afternoon young mon, just sorting out my Lanky stuff, and found these blasts from the past, and somewhere I have a signed "Lancashire Lad" LP that I bought from you in the Ring o'Bells - happy days there, and MSG. Do those leather Jeans still fit?

Hi Alan - You would rather. Mine come from 13 years (along with my wife and daughters) of NW Clog Morris - all retired 30 years ago, but my knees are still knackered 😆 and this is why.

@pixelsonapage.bsky.social Couple of pics for you. Rochdale Morris dancing on Coronation St (myself, wife & daughters are all in there), and me in full flight in our village. Both pics taken early 90s, and were taken by a team member.
