HAPPY EASTER TO ONE AND ALL XXd

A Happy and Peaceful Easter to all who celebrate

Who else remembers this?..................
As kids my sister and I would be taken up to the local park on Ester Sunday, where we used to have a picnic lunch, and "roll our boiled eggs down the hill"

This was to represent the stone being rolled away from the entrance to the tomb where the body of Jesus was laid.

I never saw that being done for many years after, even though on Easter Sunday, if I was at home, I would have a walk up to see.

Seems like another tradition that has been lost over time

Like moral standards, consideration for other people, respect for your elders, and pride in yourself. All these seem have been washed away form our modern society
Smudger,

Must be something from your side of the pond.
Never seen that here Smudger.

Um the eggs rolling, that is.....

I was not reffering to the last paragrapgh
I have seen that.

Though not all have lost all of those things.
Remember that kindly neighbor that dropped by, out of the blue, to help you?
Maybe he could use a cup of

Hi Abbi, It seems no one on that ex service site I got to remembers that either? It must have been something that my folks took north with them when they moved there?

Speaking of neighbours Abbi, did I tell you about the old bloke next door who lives with cousin? (weird that)
Any way they were playing their music so loud we couldnt even hear out TV So I phoned him up and asked him politely to turn it down.

He went beserk!! screaming abuse down thephone at me Next thing, him and his cousin (big bloke) were at our door kicking it in!! (It turns out later that they were both bling drunk?)

So we had to call the police! when they came they must have put the fear of God into him, as we havent heard his music since
Smudger,

This thread almost slipped off the screen again

I saw a movie on TV recently, that was filmed here in the UK in the 60s. I was amazed to see just how few cars and people on the streets there was at that time (amongst other things)
I think the population must be 8 times that now
Smudger,

I bought a book last year,it was written by someone local,and gave an account of the "old"area of the city,where i was brought up.
It was full of pictures of the streets that were demolished in the 60's(to make way for tower blocks).There was one picture that had just one car in the whole street,must have been 4 inch of snow,and there was mums shop,right in front of me!Wow,did that bring back some memories!!

That is so wonderful smurfles! >>
Your Moms old shop in the book!

It was nice abbi.just to be able to show my children where i was brought up,and the place that we'd told them about so often.
I lent the book to a friend,and i've asked for it back a few times,but so far........well,you can guess i'm sure.

I have a photo of the street where I was brought up before it was changed!
Its funny as I look at it every day knowing that I will never see it again I have no intentions of ever going back there, too many memories.
Funny thing, I was going through my page on here today, and just realised how long I have been on H2! and all the stuff I have written over the years. One of them even finished up in the Underguide? dont know how it managed that
I have made so many friends since coming in here, so I will carry on churning out the Snippets for the time being
Smudger,
