@Pott_Shrigley_ My mates place. You should try their Sunday lunch.

[David Ford @thebikesmith]

@fraglast You should check out the Eyre Chapel in Newbold, Chesterfield.

@Pott_Shrigley_ One of my favourite books is Seven years in Tibet by Heinrich Harrer, not the film I hasten to add.

@Pott_Shrigley_ @AndrewRawson11 I wish they had taken more care of the original Burton shop in Chesterfield when they converted into Greggs. Modern frontage on an Art Deco building with such historic importance.

[David Ford @thebikesmith]

@Pott_Shrigley_ @AndrewRawson11 Does the big building with the portico front say Burton’s?

[David Ford @thebikesmith]

@Pott_Shrigley_ I went to that gig.

[David Ford @thebikesmith]

@Pott_Shrigley_ North Derbyshire/Chesterfield term. Crozzled bacon, crozzly hold on a climbing crag particularly limestone.

@fraglast I think the statement “JUST TAKE IT” sum him up. I believe that’s inciting theft.

[David Ford @thebikesmith]

@D_Times So one of the wealthiest families in the country needs a public appeal?

[David Ford @thebikesmith]

@D_Times Stop demonising adders. They have always been there and always will. They will slider away before you would even notice them.

[David Ford @thebikesmith]

@D_Times You could question why Ashley Close in chesterfield has several top quality repairs when there are no more that 20 hoses and it’s a cup- de-sac with no traffic. Yet, the major roads in chesterfield are in a shocking state.

@fraglast He’ll be walking around like he’s clenching a minto between his buttocks.

@Pott_Shrigley_ Looks very similar to the Eyre Chapel apart from there are no grave stone at EC.

[David Ford @thebikesmith]

@MichaelVaughan @dabblecouk Michael, I know you like a flutter but promoting it I’m not a fan of as my best mate, a big cricket and football fan took his own life because of his gambling. So I’m not sure sharing is caring in respect to gambling only encouraging.

[David Ford @thebikesmith]

@tobyfoster Yeah true but you could go out on a Friday night for less than a tenner and come home with change.

[David Ford @thebikesmith]

@mrdanwalker What sort of wickets are they preparing? Another 2 day test match in the making.

[David Ford @thebikesmith]

@D_Times Wasn’t this nearly 2 weeks ago? A bit slow with the reporting DT.

[David Ford @thebikesmith]

@Pott_Shrigley_ Just a couple of thoughts. Game keepers for the Duke of Rutland training as snipers for WW1 or soldiers who had/were convalescent at Longshaw Lodge following WW1 injuries.
