    Hello, Antonio. Welcome to GC.

    I used to live near Leicester. Earl Shilton, actually. And I worked at the Leicester Royal Infirmary once. Is it still there? All my old hospitals seem to have disappeared now!

    Hi all, thank you for the warm welcomes and yes Helen my wife does read GC. She lol.
    hello pal yes i have taken my wife there a few times & she visits the garden centre while i look at the trains, it`s a shme due to h & S reasons you are not allowed to visit the engine shed any more. i always think if it`s not safe for the public it`s not safe for the volunteers to be there either.
    daisees, as regards to leicester infirmary it is going strong with a large exstention to the old buildings.
    at the moment they are building a road bypass for earl shilton the A47 it`s by passing on the east.:):thumb:

    I have to smile at you Antonio, in fact I am cracking up, your poor other half, I suppose this is what makes GC soo interesting. I am also interested in steam trains it seems to grow on you after a while. On my recent visit to Sri-Lanka I had a look at some old steam rollers and old Locos now defunct.
    Warm welcome to you my friend.:D:lollol::)
