The19th century burial registers of nearly all big city burial grounds make sad reading, we complain about the NHS but at least there is medical help available to all of us these days. I do know Paradise Square, it's one of the few remaining places in the city centre that still has its original old buildings and is still a proper square. Almost all the old buildings in the city were lost to either German bombing or 1960s clearances.Rowanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13679130612798888266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3639892272013528432.post-61974864229817244712008-11-23T19:49:00.000+00:002008-11-23T19:49:00.000+00:00Hello, I discovered your blog while researching Cl...Hello, I discovered your blog while researching Clootie Wells. How marvelous it (your blog) is. I havent read all the words but have skimmed a few posts and will return. I have in my heart some affinity for Wales. No idea why. The pickled pears sound yummy as does a "car boot sale." Oh my. Be well, sukisukipoethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09351851210507048174noreply@blogger.com
