A convent In Freshfield in 1946	by Pauline McLynn (Member 10252046) on 18-Sep-2010
I spent a term at a convent in Freshfield in 1946 when my mother was ill. I remember walking in pinewoods. I don't think it is there now. I would like to hear from anyone else who knows anything about it and I would love to see a photo Re: A convent In Freshfield in 1946 by Jack Barrett (Member 10253566) on 27-Oct-2010 Hi, this sounds very much to me like St.Joseph's nursing home at the end of Blundell Avenue. The building was first a family home, and the daughter of the owner got tuberculosis and became ill, and the owner put funds towards turning the property into a nursing home for victims of tuberculosis, and the convent was built. It then became a foster home where you obviously attended and then it bec ame a nursing home run by the Frances Taylor foundation who employ the sisters, some of which are still on site ... more >> Reply

I am looking for anyone who knew my dad, Bernard Linaker. He grew up on Birlington Avenue Formby.

Re: Bernard Linaker - anyone know him by Allan Brookes (Member 10252987) on 15-Oct-2010 Louise, saw your message. Your dad was my cousin. Your gran, Jean, and my mum Lilly were sisters. Sorry to see in later message that he has died. Last saw him in about 1962 when he was a conductor with Ribble. I see you went to SA well I came to Canada. I was last in the UK in 78 and did go to Formby to have a look around but a lot and changed. He was one week older than I. I have good memories of staying at auntie Jeans in the early fifties. I seem to recall that they lived in Council Avenue opposite Woodwards garage. Its an awful long time. I guess we are cousins once removed. Nice to know . ... more >> Reply

Anyone Heard of this?	by phonefun (Member 10234964) on 30-Jan-2009
Funny as anything. All sorts of randoms on it It's basically a landline telephone number you can ring. 0870 755 0872. Where you get put into a waiting facility, it then connects you to another caller, you say hello, and they can choose whether to talk to you, or put you back in the queue because they don't like the sound of you or whatever hahaha. Like a chat room with a private chat facility, but in phone terms? and it's free if you are BT Home user (as calls to 0870 numbers now free) The number is 0870 755 0872 ... more >> Reply
