      @Jack Sparrow can't bring myself to watch it. None of it was filmed in Grimsby anyway lol. @martin-f I can imagine what it's like. Used to walk through the notorious nunsthorpe estate in Grimsby on my way to my mates house after college and used to wonder why all the sweets in the newsagents were kept behind locked cabinets lol.

          @Snorky85 it' a good film. At least my wife and I enjoyed it. It's a bit crude and there's the usual bad language but it's all in context and very well put together

                        So you knew Attercliffe then? I did too.

                        I worked in Sheffield for a year, but we lived in Abbeydale Park Rise, Dore.
                        We could sit at the bottom of our garden and watch the cricket on Sundays.

                            We got a fair amount done yesterday.

                            Mrs Shiney filled a wheelie bin with weeds, we potted up a load of succulents and irises (a few dozen) and I put together a new wheelbarrow. The other three barrows are getting past it and the newest of those is our Ballbarrow that I bought 42 years ago :old: :heehee:

                                That's the one :blue thumb: It has done sterling work in our garden and is still used for grass cuttings. We have an extension that goes on the top (made by Dyson) that triples its capacity. :)
