    I`m sure there`s a veiled compliment in there somewhere Lincs although my girlfriend always say`s I look ten years younger than I really am.
    Domine Lane....is that you Lincs left hand side holding hands with the older chap...

    I also remember the Public Baths and the old Post Office but don`t tell anyone...

    Corporation Street because Public Transport was popular.

    Wow Casper, I worked exactly opposite the one on the right hand side, I once put all the bunting lights out, idling away with an old yard-stick for some unknown reason I poked it into an empty light fitting, it's a good job the stick only had brass on the ends or I doubt I would have been telling the story now. Middle of winter and no lights in half the market.

    Ps...I don't think that's me, everything was black and white in my day

    Casper - where do you get these images from - I had an artist ask me within the last week for old and current images of Rotherham and those 'overlooked street scenes' that they can use to work from?
