Thunder and lightning here as well - had to close the windows....

As early as 1980 it was mentioned in the Times archive....

I haven't chosen not to, but I am in touch with my GP surgery to get information - I believe that there are people who are of higher priority than myself, but that doesn't mean to say that it isn't a priority. My lifestyle has changed so much in the past 18 months or so which means that I don't go out...

[George 1978]

At least it's something positive about it....

We have had a bit of rain outside which I think is welcoming at the moment - I think I know what Tex was referring to in Manchester now.

I am grateful for the feedback, HG - I am obviously interested in how others have reacted after having the vaccine. My friend had a very numb arm after having her first one a couple of months ago - I hope that it isn't a case of "out of the frying pan" when it comes to having the jab, but...

[George 1978]

After a lengthy telephone conversation with a friend yesterday evening, I am going to bow to the inevitable and plan to get my first jab - I have emailed my local GP surgery to see if they can do it there, or whether they can tell me where the nearest vaccine jab site is. I am going to Liverpool over...

I have noticed this myself and I do see threads which are mostly one post wonders and therefore doesn't bring any constructive into the conversation.

I have started threads about various things to do with the past and get very few replies - mostly because I am probably the only person...

Married to the late Sir David Frost I believe.

Louise Brown, the first IVF baby was born yesterday (25th July) in 1978....

I heard that the messages stuck onto the Marcus Rashford mural had to be moved as they got wet in the rain....

I was glad that we had a cool day last week but the heat has seemed to have come back.

Dieter Brummer, the Australian actor who played Shane Parrish in 1990s episodes of Home and Away has been found dead at the age of 45.

I started a thread earlier on this year about his character's screen partner Angel Parrish (nee Brooks) played by Melissa George, and so this obviously...

P have always wondered what would have happened if I had an Asperger Syndrome, dyspraxia or anything else diagnosis while I was still at school - whether it would have been a good or a bad thing. Many people would have said that it would have been a bad thing as some people there could have used it...

[George 1978]

My Junior school had quite a few Muslim pupils and so therefore they needed to be a variation on the menu for religious reasons....

Davies, not David - he was that man who looked a bit like Education Professor Ted Wragg....

[George 1978]

Not to mention Andrew O'Connor as well...

[George 1978]

Is it me or does Buster look like Andy Capp? - same cartoonist, perhaps?

I guess that Monday 23rd April was 1979....

The days when Kellogg's made a lot more in their factories rather than just breakfast cereals....

[George 1978]

I am almost certain that I had one very briefly on Tuesday morning as the microwave clock needed to be reset - nothing else was affected however.

Anyone drinking more cups of tea than usual? - drinking something warm in this weather does the trick sometimes....

Take that thermometer out of your mouth - anyone would think that you were ill...
