  1. Good news that cinemas are re-opening; just in time for the new James Bond film which comes out this week. Praise be 007!!! Also out is "The Many Saints Of Newark", the early years film about The Sopranos starring Michael Gandolfini; son of the late James; as teenage Tony Soprano. The last film I saw at the pictures was that extreme road rage effort with a fat Russell Crowe as the psychopath.
  2. The fish fingers in Tops are Waitrose from UK. Back in stock a couple of weeks ago. I did try some fish sticks made with pollock which were nice if a bit on the small side. Pollock is similar taste to cod but flaky rather than dense texture. Haywards mixed pickle now on my missing items list, along with pickled baby beets, Baxters or Heinz. The baby beets go well with my "go to" hot smoked salmon fillets which are also out of stock at Tops.
  3. Last weekend there was a G7 meeting of paliamentary house leaders held in Chorley in Lancashire. UK House of Commons Speaker Lindsay Hoyle hosted the meeting and US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi was one of the guests. They were all treated to traditional Lancashire fayre including Lancashire hotpot, Goosnargh duck, butter pies and Chorley cakes. Add in Morecambe Bay potted shrimps, Bury black pudding, Lancashire cheese, Eccles cakes, pig's trotters and dressed tripe you have the makings of a great menu.
  4. ... With a vaccine developed in Germany. I know of many non-American expats who are eternally grateful to USA because so many Americans on various threads have repeatedly told us it should be so.
  5. Should have played last night. They only had the ressies out v West Ham, as did they.
  6. It was estimated that 100,000 attended over the 2 nights last year. Bars were open and beer could be drunk on the beach. All sorts of businesses were given a boost, albeit short-lived.
  7. Welcome to the unofficial Bolton Wanderers thread. Already I have more posts than some of the supposed big clubs. More to come later. Up the Whites!!!
