Stemoshire.
« on: 22 October 2023, 10:30:35 »

Going there first thing Thursday morning.Step granddaughter has agreed to buy[subject to it being as described]a MkIV Golf 1.9d.Unfortunately we'll not have time to stay and sample the delights of Barnsley as she has to be back home in time for her second driving lesson,her boyfriend is slightly less than enthusiastic at the idea of her driving back here especially as it's him that's going to be riding shotgun while I lead the way home avoiding the motorways.Easy enough done Barnsley to Doncaster and pick up the A18 all the way home.Hopefully we'll be able to get in/out of Barnsley before Stemo sets the whippet on us :D

Used to spend quite a bit of time in Barnsley in my yoof[I was born and raised in a small town called Swinton about 10 miles from Barnsley] and one of my aunts lived in Cudworth[we're heading for Carlton]on match days Barnsley fans would gather in a pub called the Corner Pin don't know if that is still there as it's the late '80's since last I went to the town.

It seems things can escape from beyond the event horizon that is Barnsley, My parcel is now marked as delivered, on Saturday at 11:54AM, to a buisness address that will have been unmanned at the time. I wonder what state the thing will be in though.

Nowt wrong wi Barnsley, the folk that live there I have allways found them to be welcoming.

One of my best mates lives in Brampton Bierlow
I also have friends in Wombwell - Stairfoot - Swinton and surrounding areas

Used to go to Wombwell market every Saturday aftertoon - lovely place - not sure if they still have the market though.

Plus I spent a lot of time at an American car scrapyard on the way out of Barnsley.

Good old days and lots of memories

Plus a few famous people from there.

My eldest daughter and her husband moved to Brampton Bierlow shortly before they married in '97 and now along with their two daughters they live there still.
