When I was  small my mam and dad. Always sent postcards and when we went to the isle of man they used to send their relations Manx kippers in the post

It was part of the holiday looking at the  funny postcards

I don't send them anymore as I don't go on holiday

Do any of you still send them

Yep. In the 1950's I remember  mum and dad buying fistfuls of postcards to  send to relatives when on holiday in Fleetwood. Always scenic ones, never the rude ones !Laugh

There was also a small shop where you could buy kippers and have them boxed up and posted.

Unfortunately, Diddy Wah's parents sent the scenic postcards ... it's only the rude ones that have any value nowadays.

I had a little red yaught and a rod with a hook on .those were happy days I was quite content pushing my yaught and watching the wind blowing the sails on it in the in the boating lake then running round to the other side of the lake .and pulling the yaught into harbour with my pole and hook

I was so content not worrying about betting .

Another time they bought me a plastic fire engine with a rubber ball on its tender to pump your water through its plastic hosepipe and a moveable adjustable ladder .life was fun the girls in the guest house used to make us some soup and we played cards with them while mam and dad and the guest house owners went to the pub

No I want it to get warmer .have you seen them penguins in the cold they all have to huddle together to keep warm and you can see lots of penguins pulling their faces because some of them smell of fish

If it got warmer they could stand on their own .and have as much room as they wanted .

A thoughtful, and I'm sure sincere, gesture Deltâ....

Get that address sent Do wah Diddy, and I'm sure it will give you a great big buzz...

Perhaps not as big a buzz, as when half the forumites descend on yours, on New Years Eve....
