Slightly off topic, but are the Woodhouse Grange who just won the
Village Cricket Cup Final from Woodhouse in Leeds?

If they are, I've played for them!

If anyone is interested, my career statistics for them read:
Innings 1       Runs 0  Notout 0        Balls faced 7

At last - someone who realises there is a difference between south of
the 
river and South Yorkshire

What's this South Yorkshire shite?   West Riding, East Riding and North 
Riding is Yorkshire....

Hunslet Feast - ah yes, my first induction to the delicacy of Brandy
Snap

Hunslet RLFC - watched my elder brother who was 14 at the time lose his 
RUGBY UNION final 9-3 at that ground (he scored the three points) whilst

playing for Parkside Secondary, then I went back a couple of weeks later
to 
sample the Hunslet feast!  Then they turned the feckin' place into an 
industrial estate!

Anyone remember the old derelict Air Cadets place, with all the old
military 
vehicles dumped in it -somewhere between the Broadway/allotments and 
Remploy?  For you lot north of the river, that's slumland; and for those
of 
us from Beeston, that's the area just east of the Dewsbury Road
allotments, 
but not quite as far as the Crescent Cinema or the site of the feast!

Google Earth might be fascinating, but it don't show nostalgia, or the 
crappy places we were dragged up LOL

ps Phil, I witnessed me eldest brother getting beaten up by a gippo when
he 
was 14, for looking at a gippo girl - her 17 yo brother got 'im!
(that 
was 48 years ago, and I remember it like it was yesterday)
