Off Topic The Likely Lads

He was from Sunderland I think.
He is, but runs the place down every chance he gets. I loved his character in the Likely Lads, but in real life its a totally different story, Rodney Bewes on the other hand, spoke of his Northern roots with pride, its a shame that cant be said of Bolam. <ok>

That's all very true from what I hear.
Liked him in New Tricks like.
 
Oh what happened to you
Whatever happened to me
What became of the people
We used to be

Do those words get any of you other not so young ones thinking about your times gone by ?

Only too true in my case, but I was so much older then, I'm younger than that now. Wonder who said that, memories gone as well. <bubbly>
To be serious, the period, the song and the shots of Newcastle also never fail to strike a note. <ok>
