It was indeed. The ball lasted all night and we had breakfast on the race course. Amazing how the rose tinted spectacles always mean that the weather was better in years gone by.
I have happy memories too of your neck of the woods. As a child I used to go and watch Sunderland play in the times of Len Shackleton, Gentleman Jim Baxster and Jimmy Montgomery.

I have lived in Lincolnshire for close to 30 years now but Durham will always feel like home. I passed my driving test in the City. Remember the policeman in his box in the Market Place? 👍

Copy each one and paste in Google, listen to them, really listen to them, they are all truly passionate and mystic. Great list mr wilks.
