The Oldies Thread

For some unknown reason this popped up in my head.

My mates and I found this place a few years ago, driving between Nashville and Memphis two of us spotted the sign at the same time , Casey Jones Village “whoa we’ve got to go there “ . It was great.

Old Country Store | American Restaurant in Jackson, TN

Delicious Southern cooking! Home of the best cracklin' cornbread in the world! Since 1965.

The death of the Duke of Edinburgh and the various programmes on the tv reminded me of my youth and my first love with the Royal Family....

Many years ago I was driving from Maidenhead to Windsor. I got about halfway when the traffic came to a stop as someone was turning right. The traffic coming the other way had stopped and when we started moving, it was at a slow pace. I glanced at a car coming the other way, as it passed me. It was an Audi convertible with the top down. It was a lady driver and as she went past we made eye contact. It was Lady Di and I got a lovely smile and a wave. It surprised me that she was alone in the car. I always thought that they travelled with Security.
