  • Tips and advice: on entering Boston please be aware this a town like no other, the best way to describe it is a time warped narrow minded black hole, in which everybody seems to know everybody and if you dare to enter it beware never to leave. (That's the general idea)
  • I am an ex Bosotonian who left to find my fortune in Liverpool in 1947. Not found it yet but always hope that someday good fortune will come. I miss my old friends George Clayton and Bill Lewis who lived in Castle Street. I wonder if they are still with us. I would like to know. I visited Boston three years ago and found it quite different to the 'old' days but what can one expect after all these years. Good luck to all who cherish the town and its heritage.
  • The winter of 1963, weather so cold, it was warmer at the south pole. Look up the records if you do not believe.One mad, may have been more than one, person. Made headlines in the Standard, driving down the Witham from Lincoln. Ice 8 feet thick, about average for the youths around the town at that time. Ice flows jamming the locks at sluice bridge for weeks. I thinnk that the army had to blow the ice to allow the river to drain. OR,,OORR,OOOORRR, what about the floods of 1953, the river topping the wall over the bank at the top of Fydell street, this lead to the river defences being modernised not long after. Think about it. The rise from low to high tide topped 50 feet. Unheard of since.

  • Katmandu is THE BEST HEAD SHOP AROUND! They have the best bongs, pipes, seeds, books, stash canns and lighters, lollies that you can buy anywhere!

They sell adult toys, for every kind of fantasy, as well as the clothing and videos to match!! YOU MUST GO LOOK! Katmandu, West Street, Boston. Hi everyone, I work at a shop called Katmandu on West Street in Boston, Lincs, UK. We are, among other things, a tattoo studio, and feel that we could raise a considerable amount of money, if sponsored and supported by you the local press, public,and businesses for the charity Children in Need. As I'm sure many of you are aware, this charity affair is due to begin very soon, and the major event on the 15th November. We feel that with your help, both by forwarding this info on to your relevant contacts, and by sponsoring us yourselves, and of others like you, we could really help needy kids all over the world. We are hoping to get help in making the public aware of this sponsored tattoo, and to would love it if you could help us to gain funds for the children. It would basically be a combination of Katmandu and the volunteer being sponsored. No money raised will be taken by our business, not even for products used, it will ALL be paid for by us. EVERYTHING will go to the registered charity CHILDREN IN NEED. Please put this proposal to your collegues, friends and acquaintances, your help is needed and would be greatly appreciated. We are very serious and dedicated to our work, and offer the highest quality tattoos and are totally registered and sterile. There is no down side to this sponsor, the volunteer gets a free top quality tattoo, you guys get a chance to give a little, we get to give a lot, and in doing all of this, lots of needy kids will get what they need, a helping hand to a better future! Please don't dismiss this e-mail, we look forward to hearing from you. You can contact either myself, Rachel Dowsett, or my husband, Tony Dowsett, the tattoo artist himself, on +44 (01205) 360870, pop in to see us if you are in our area, e-mail KATMANDUBOSTON@AOL.COM or even send your donation to us at the address below. If any of you have any questions just get in touch. Thank you so much for you time, Rachel Dowsett Katmandu 26 west street boston lincolnshire, UK PE21 8QH

  • BOSTON CANCER & LEUKAEMIA RESEARCH FUND. it is run by a group of interested people, interested not just in finding a cure for these diseases, but in finding a cause. With funds already collected over the past few years several research projects have been undertaken. This research group is the brain child of a Consultant Haematologist based at Pilgrim Hospital. Help is always needed with fund raising, and ideas are greatly welcome. For further details contact Jo, e-mail -- ojo1o@hotmail.com
  • What about a mention for Boston UTD football club! We could have a seperate page just dedicated to how badly a football club is being managed. A town the size of Boston should at least be in the 3rd division. However, I believe someone who has the wrinkly hands in the club is to frightened and to money grabbing to help Boston Utd advance to where they should be
  • If you go to the corn exchange there is an original copy of 'The Book of Maytres' as the bloke who wrote it lived there. If an American Tourist aske you then yes, you are related to one of the Pilgrim Fathers.
