michellemuffin
20-02-06, 07:40 PM
hi Bev, I know Dagenham very well especially Becontree heath and the merry fiddler pub, in my youth i use to visit a 70s group who lived there, one of the band was my best mates cousin ahhhh those were the days lol
my hubby MIck was born in Romford oldchurch hospital to be exact and he has family in Upminster and Romford still,
I know Market square very well after shopping there for most of my life one of my old school friends parents had a shoe stall there, was Yates the old millenium club, we left 10 years ago this august,

bevs
20-02-06, 08:10 PM
Wow small world! I live in Becontree (not Heath) but by Becontree Station in Gale St, the Fiddlers pub is now a Morrisons! but the area is still known as the Fiddlers.

The shoe stall in Market Sq is still there, and Yates's is on the other side across the Sq from Millenium, still affectionately known as the dive!. Although last year they changed the name to Liquid.

Wheekster
20-02-06, 09:42 PM
I know where Sydney Road, Chatham is.... about a five minute drive from my house, lol. My relatives live at Berecroft and Standing Ford in Harlow :) I haven't been there in a few years, but everywhere is changing over here so fast :( I used to live in Swindon, Wiltshire many years ago and when I went back there recently I was totally lost its changed so much, lol.

Janella

squeakypigs: I don't watch home and away..haven't for years..but watch neighbours every night.

I would travel to England one day .. I'm english on my dad's side and my surname is scottish... so I will never be short of accomodation ;D

michellemuffin
21-02-06, 09:13 AM
hi Janella can you let us know who is behind the bomb on Neighbours I think its Darcy cant really think of anyone else, I use to have a pen pal in Gonndiwindi I loved the name , my mums family live in Melbourne, hope you get to England one day :)

michellemuffin
21-02-06, 09:16 AM
Hi wheekster, cannot belive you know Sydney road, my sister in law use to live at 95 Berecroft years ago, never heard of Standing Ford maybe one of the new areas thats sprung up everywhere, its amazing how things change so quick is'nt it? I hate going back to Harlow but my mother in law died last may so we had a few visits for that etc, none of my family enjoy going back, and we always let out a sigh of relief once back on the ferry home lol

LOL, I thought that too, about it being Darcy!!

michellemuffin
21-02-06, 09:20 AM
hi Bev cannot believe the Fiddlers is now a Morrisons, we were always in the chippy across from that pub,
the shoe stall was owned by Ashbys in Harlow think he might have retired when his wife died though
I cannot believe how often clubs and pubs change names, no wonder I cant keep up with them,

Lucinda
21-02-06, 10:42 AM

It was Paul Robinson, but he got away with it, the police blamed it on Gus (Isabelle's baby's father).

Were about 12 months ahead.. I can let you know some stuff that's happened/happening here if you like?

squeakypigs
22-02-06, 09:30 AM
lol thats the exact reason why I want you to be a Home and Away fan... lol - so you can give me all the latest gossip!!

My sister did this 1 months travel in America and some Australlians were doing it too and they said Home and Away is more popular than Neighbours? ???

I'm sorry I've never really go into Home and away :-\

squeakypigs
22-02-06, 09:39 AM
I have never got into Neighbours. :D Do you have any friends that watch Home and Away - Would love to know some of the things which are going to happen! lol I rem ages a go I went in an Australian chatroom and was asking people. People must have thought I was weird lol

Janella
22-02-06, 09:43 AM
I have a girlfriend that watches Home and Away.. I only see her every month or so as she does a lot of shift work hours.

But will defintely ask her for details. :)

squeakypigs
22-02-06, 09:47 AM
hehe thank you. We always use to only be **** a month or maybe less behind than Australia but then Home and Away moved from one TV channel to another and they didn't put it on for a year. Its on at 6pm everynight Mon - Fri and I don't think its on that much in Australia so I don't think we are as far as a year behind anymore but still **** a good 6 months? ???

michellemuffin
22-02-06, 11:02 AM
hi Janella who put the bomb on the plane I'm guessing you thought i ment the hotel but paul was on the plane with Izzy when it crashed in to the sea, I really cant think of anyone but Darcy and he did go away and never really got his own back on Izzy for pushing him down stairs, its great having some inside info hee hee thanks

Warminster Wiltshire between Sailsbury and Bath near Longleat if anyone has been there. They have a pets corner with loads of guinea pigs in a big enclosure.


I went to Longleat a few weeks ago and saw the guineas. We wanted to do the safari but it was PACKED! The guinea bit is great though. There are 37 there, I loved seeing them all running round loose. They were scratching themselves quite a lot though!
