Title: Re: Swindon Heritage Post by: BruceChatwin on Thursday, January 24, 2013, 11:41:17 Not a colour scheme that's going to win the website any fans on this forum.
Title: Re: Swindon Heritage Post by: jayohaitchenn on Thursday, January 24, 2013, 11:41:59 Horrendous.
Title: Re: Swindon Heritage Post by: ChalkyWhiteIsGod on Thursday, January 24, 2013, 12:38:28 Lovely idea for a site...unfortunately it burned my eyes after two seconds so I could not look further, added to the fact it's the scum's coloured and I think the webmaster has scored an O.G
Title: Re: Swindon Heritage Post by: dogs on Thursday, January 24, 2013, 13:02:50 On a related note, it always brings home the disgraceful town planning decisions, imposed on Swindon when seeing old photos of the town and what it has become on here http://www.flickr.com/photos/swindonlocal/
Title: Re: Swindon Heritage Post by: yeo on Thursday, January 24, 2013, 17:04:55 I thought it was interesting and I'll buy the Magazine if I see it.
Title: Re: Swindon Heritage Post by: leefer on Thursday, January 24, 2013, 18:49:30 As always anything old and Swindony gets me juices flowing.
Title: Re: Swindon Heritage Post by: Ginginho on Thursday, January 24, 2013, 19:04:13 As always anything old and Swindony gets me juices flowing. What about Reg? Title: Re: Swindon Heritage Post by: leefer on Thursday, January 24, 2013, 19:50:43 What about Reg? I said old...not ancient :D :D Title: Re: Swindon Heritage Post by: Mother Brown on Thursday, January 24, 2013, 22:01:23 Seems there were a lot of pubs that fell by the wayside in the town centre. Not that ime (ahem)that old but can remember when the only ones down the bottom of town were- Rolling Mills,the Sir Dan,Locomotive(good discotheque on a Sat),Lamb + Flag. I believe the Albion club is still trading?
Title: Re: Swindon Heritage Post by: leefer on Thursday, January 24, 2013, 22:10:15 I have done a lot of reading up on Edith New.......certainly a very under rated person in the Swindon stakes.
Ta for posting this Ardiles....certainly looks up my street. Title: Re: Swindon Heritage Post by: Bedford Red on Friday, May 17, 2013, 16:53:12 2nd issue arrived in the post today. There's an article about the club in it, written by Dick Mattick. Plenty about the railway works and other things. If this sort of thing interests you then i definately recommend you get a copy....
