Re: remember these sweets when you were a kid?

I remember when our neighbour gave my baby brother a glass of home made ginger beer. He took a mouthful spat it out and wanted to know who put the prickles in it.

Re: South Shields Railways

You might also find 'The South Shields, Marsden and Whitburn Colliery Railway' by William J. Hatcher a good read. You can buy that (and I think 'The Railways of South Shields') in the Discovery Museum shop. Or you could last time I was there which is admittedly a bit since. I am a Kiwi and I can re...

Re: new suite

Re: burger bar

Before I left New Zealand to live in Australia they had a Wimpy's bar in Henderson Square (a shopping centre in the Auckland suburb of Henderson) I used to buy milk shakes there. They were the only one in New Zealand as far as I know.
