It's amazing that all of these memories of dialect, shop names and products has created such a series of threads! Regretfully I do not have the time to do so but if someone edited & collated it all to a single document it would make a great segment in the Rootsweb/Genuki (??) Leicestershire page perhaps? Peter Holmes Western Australia. Skype ; p.g.holmes [HOLMES (Witham on the Hill, Manthorpe, Spalding, Pinchbeck, Donington then Leicestershire)]. [DAVISON (Spalding, Donington, Ingoldmells, Skegness)]. [CRAGG (Lincolnshire, Leicestershire & Nottinghamshire)] [FREER (Leicestershire)]. [RYLOTT & WITHERINGTON (Anwick, N & S Kyme, N & S Rauceby, Surfleet, Gosberton Clough etc., Spalding)] [RYLOTT (Ontario Canada & some in New York & Florida USA)] Villages are in Lincolnshire unless stated. PLUS 4 DUTCH surname lines - from Rotterdam area (in Dutch).
Right/ Now I made the suggestion about collecting all these threads together, as before. Perhaps I could do it again, but I will need help. As I said previously, I have deleted most of the threads as they came in, so where can I collect them all from? This time the threads have covered a much wider area & such a lot of very special memories have been remembered by us all. If I can collect all the e-mails, I would be willing to edit them & to prepare an article for publishing to Genuki or a Leicester Page on Rootsweb as suggested. So, please help................

Hi June, It sounds like many like the idea of collating all of the e-mails into some sort of memory document. I hardly know what or where anyone is talking about since I grew up in America, so I am not the person for the collating job. However, I have also deleted the e-mails but I still can get access to them. Tell me how and where to send them and I will see what I can do to get them to you.

June, I might be able to help. I often collect a thread and put it all into one email, which can get quite long, as this one is doing. I can forward it to you when the discussion stops - although I think all we "oldies" and expatriates really enjoy it and never want it to stop! My Hubbie, John especially, loves Leicester things and, apart from following Leicester City football on the net, he has pictures of Leicester and maps of Leics. on his bedroom wall - also old photos of the football team sent by our daughter who lives in England (in the south, wouldn't mess about in Leics. and Lincs.!). John's going to love all this nostalgia when I show it to him! I tend to just put the emails as they come in, working upwards so that the most recent is at the top, but you might want to edit it in some other form. Then again, you might prefer to create your own document from the archives.
