inspired by some of the old boozers mentioned in the pub thread, i thought we hadn't raided the Leodis website for a bit..

..was trying to find my first house i had a mortgage on, on the Morris's in Kirkstall, can't find it, the [url=http://www.leodis.net/display.aspx?resourceIdentifier=200456_74256534&DISPLAY=FULLSt Stephens Church[/url is a close as i can find, don't suppose the church has changed that much, just seem to think the trees have grown a lot or there are more trees now.

Castleford's first "new fangled" washing machine installed [url=http://www.leodis.net/display.aspx?resourceIdentifier=2002212_31855410&DISPLAY=FULLearlier today[/url

Castleford residents could be forgiven for thinking that was a screen capture from Tomorrows World.

This is more my sort of thread ...

One of those old ladies is saying ...

"eeeh it di'nt look this big in t'Brian Mills catalogue..."

On the subject of Leeds and nostalgia.

I watched The Beiderbecke Affair the other night (well, some of it anyway) and there are plenty of places in Leeds to spot from the early 80s.

Moving forward a bit there was also the early (at least) Touch of Frosts and Fat Friends.

Ah Touch of Frost,where one episode he left Valley Parade drove down Burley Road (near viaduct going towards St Micheals rd) and ending up at the Shea in Halifax

Old Emmerdale & Heartbeat filmed in Farsley

Frost was also filmed in the Farnell building on Armley Road.

Fat Friends is/was filmed near my work in West Park & Horsforth.

My Mother has loads of old pictures of Bramley & Pudsey. To me it all looks kinda weird

Gotta admit though Bramley Town St looked miles better without ''The Shopping Centre''

I remember that episode

I used to do quote a bit of amatuer film making in my bedroom on Meanwood Road.

I promised to make lots of girls stars.
