Not quite as picturesque, singing not so good but what do you expect in the land of the Slade. Take a look at one of our local sights in Bilston.

There used to be two Wallaces Street's. 1 and 2 but they were better known as the Front and Back Deeds. If your mother was an Ards woman born and bred she would remember them. I was born and raised in the Front Deed.

My brother Sandy lives in Kilbeg Walk,just off Greenwell St. Sister,Gracie Mooney live at Hillside and other sister Nancy Crilly lives on the Tullynagardy Road. There are nieces and nephews too numerous to mention.

Gracie used to live on the Portaferry Road some years back.

My email addy is bobcarnduff@yahoo.co.uk

Ricky, Norman Boyd and his brother Ronnie lived 5 doors away from us. their father kept racing pigeons and had some champions amongst them.

Norman was a good footballer in his time.

A pointless thread but kept open because the mods like you!! What has this to do with north cyprus? you all moan but just dont get it. "cyprus44 the information board of north cyprus" a long way from that, just a social networking site for the people with nothing to do.....

lapta2 For your information the mods don't know me so why would they keep a thread open for that reason. And more to the point you don't know me so don't accuse me of having nothing to do!



As has been said more than once on this board if the title doesn't interest you don't read it and then you won't need to make silly remarks.

Philbailey. Yes no one makes anyone read anything, but when you look at this board "about north cyprus" and all you get is pointless threads and chit chat, it gets quite frustrating! I log on to find out whats going on here, but by the time a football result, someone thinking of old times or the weather back home I cant find it!! Why dont people just use facebook and get this board back to an informative tool about north cyprus? just a thought?

I bet they do in Nicosia though !!!

What's ice-cream got to do with TRNC I now live here and I like ice-cream so surely I can discuss it with like minded people and it's (imo) not off topic as you can sample it in Scotland Musselburgh to be precise.



Yes I remember Frances very well.
