It just doesn't seem to have that spark that it used to, I think the whole thing could do with a re-vamp. <br />Love the socks!

There certainly seems to be a range of responses to the theme and I think seeing them in the flesh might be better than looking at the photos online as I did. Do you recall the bookwork by Gwen Hedley? If so, do tell me what it was like up close... sounds like the less said about Ally Pally the better... although I've only been once, years ago, I remember complaints about the loos even then - how come they don't listen and improve things I wonder.LAC EMP 2020https://www.blogger.com/profile/01999825212820503519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2419544468759273678.post-6276381590152050842013-10-14T18:57:48.628+01:002013-10-14T18:57:48.628+01:00Hope your toes are feeling refreshed in your lovel...Hope your toes are feeling refreshed in your lovely socks.
