and with that ... I am going for some MUCH needed kip ... err sheep - soz I mean sleep xx ( so tired ) Elaine ;-)))

............. I have just said on the other thread that I am going to go back to my old name ........... Mandy Blue Knees ................. :-)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))

Hold on a minute .... I remember being asked years ago ... by a close friend ... why had I changed my name ?? I hadn't changed my name at that point ..... and said as much ... but I never asked why they asked me !... cos we were on Record Office at that time, and I didn't know about this board ... I'll ask them during next few days ... The plot thickens .... Esmerelda ... do I know you ?? Elaine ;-)

There are two of us Mags that are prominent! Mags from Bristol and Mags Mcshane (me) we are not the same person, but are both equally nice. I promise. Well Mags from Bristol is lovely! LOL

Me thinks this is where Errol is confused thinking Harlow and Derbyshire were one and the same sweetie!! xx

OOOOOOPs sorry ........... it was a similar name then .......... included a place name ................ I will delete just in case it is misunderstood or used by someone else!!!!!! :-))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))

????????? No !!! not that I know of ???

Nudged for Errol to read .... Oh dear ... you COWARD. Run away ....

Gawd I can't believe people would think you are one and the same!! If its all to do with what the sheep said..... please remember he talks BAAALACKS!! x

Elaine, I know what you mean about changing name. There are far too many Pauls too. At work, its ever worse for me - I work for a global company and we have about 18 Paul Smiths in our email address book, I think I've had mail for virtually all of them at one point or another, hardly a day goes by... I've joked about changing my name on here before... we did come up with one at one point... Levi. because I like teh name and I have a few of them in my tree lol Paul (or maybe Levi ? lol)

lolol I HATE the name Elaine as well, only had 2 of us in my year at school ! E x

Germaine, PM received. Will send photo's on some point today :-) Louise, They haven't knocked it down yet, but the bulldozers are getting tanked up ... Paul, Thanks for adding to the confusion !!!! lol :-)) Seriously thinking that we may have too many Elaine's and since (no disrespect) I HATE the name Elaine .... will have to consider using the French/Spanish alternative Helena ? someone correct, me if I'm wrong lol (jokin) Now I understand where all the confusion is coming from ! I won't mention the Elaine Taylor and Elaine Johnson that I have seen post in the past on Records !!!!! :-) I think the message is getting through .... so once this thread has gone off page one I'll delete :-)) Thanks everyone, for taking this in the spirit it was intended, especially Elaine Harlow. Elaine ;-)

Crich I remember that too. When we came home my Dad said what am I going to do for my holidays now. When they used to come to us we went allover the place. I remember Alton Towers without a funfair. Loved it that way just lots of lovely walks. Germaine x

Well I knew the you were different people lol Don't forget there's also Elaine in reading, who will be back with us shorlty I think ?

Oh thanks Elaine will send a pm. Germaine x

Germaine, I really feel so angered about it. I might end up chaining myself to the perimeter fence in protest ... but I haven't got the grit it would take. The Hells Angels were camping up there last weekend ... I have some photo's of Riber ... if you would like them, send me your e.mail addy, and I'll sort some out and send them on to you. Elaine ;-) Morning Hilary :-))

Morning all Elaines. & everyone else. Hilary :-))

Ah that is so sad no Riber. Yes was a long while ago. We came home in wait for it 1977!!!. Still remember it though we used to take a picnic and stay nearly all day. Now I remember therer was a big aviary and in it a vulture. Our David was about 3 and we went through this sort of gate way and this bird flew down towards us David was carrying a stick and he jumped at this bird waving his stick to frighten if off . Poor mite thought it was coming at us eveyone laughed at him Davids little stick wouldn't have stopped it. More houses ! we will hav eno country side left at this rate. germaine x

Radio Derby have a name changing thingy on their website in December ... you put your name in and it throws up the Xmas Version ... I love to play, I'm a big kid at heart ... :-) Elaine ;-) THANKS Pheonix x

Blimey Germaine, That was a while ago .... They are knocking down Riber :-((((((((( Make way for a housing complex. Petition went to the House of P, I believe we lost the fight. Hasn't been a Zoo for years :-((( Such a crying shame .... A historic landmark, and part of what makes Matlock ... it breaks my heart ... Elaine ;-(((
