Re: Sinner the Winner

Another great win from Jannik Sinner in Miami winning the Grand slam to become the worlds no 2 tennis player after Djokovic. At only 22 he just gets better and better.

Re: Mobile shops

I remember my mother had eggs delivered by a Mr. Reilly. And also coal and briquettes in the days of coal fires, but I can't remember the name of the man who delivered them.

Re: Stevenston - On This Day In History

Glenshena, The honest answer to that question is, I don't know. I only post what I stumble across when I read 'old' newspapers, and there are many publications still unread.

Re: What's the latest movie you've seen?

Just sat through Oppenheimer - that’s 3 hours of my life I’ll never get back. If you haven’t seen it, don’t rush.
