The smell in cobblers shops

Fog Horns. Used to love hearing them when it was dead foggy. Use lasers or radar or other such witchcraft now.

Plus there is very little river traffic on the Mersey these days, at least down at the Pier Head. You used to be able to sit and watch loads of lights going by of an evening. Whatever happened to all the boats?

I do. And a coal man delivers it. If Mrs R is in when he does, he usually gives us an extra sack as well. Bit smitten with her he is.

Haha, they can come in useful sometimes.

I was avoiding getting our meters read when Mrs BB answered the door by mistake.

'Are your mum and dad in?'

'No sorry.'

She's twenty eight lol

Plenty about still. Do you buy coal?

They were a common sight in the 60/70s, but I haven't noticed any for years. We used to buy coal but not for about 40 years.

Brawn from the butchers.
