C...blogupnorth - the taste sensation is delightful. Cheered up soggy Skipton no end!<br /><br />Elaine - it's lovely passing stuff down. Especially tasty stuff like ice cream drinks.<br /><br />Parklover - how gutting that you missed Oasis in a small venue. I bet they were fab back then. I always wish I'd at the Duchess in Leeds when approx two people were watching. But they were great at Loch Lomond.<br /><br />Deerbaby - thank you. Coming from you, those words mean so much. It was an amazing feeling when all those memories tumbled back. Says so much about how we remember and what is held in the brain. x<br /><br />New Mummy - thank you! The pic of O with his ice cream drink is a really happy one. I love it.<br /><br />Mum@MadHouse - monkey blood - that is inspired and horrid. Just right for little boys. I love that your boys had ice cream for the first time at the same place as you. That is truly special.<br /><br />Planb - I know! That and brown flares. Us 70s kids had it good. <br /><br />Kailexness - Concert was amazing and we had the best time together. One of many happy times with good mates.<br /><br />andthenallithoughtaboutwasyou - thank you. I am really pleased you enjoyed it and your comment has made me smile.<br /><br />Michelloui - thank you. Maybe you could start a root beer float tradition? The best traditions always taste good...<br /><br />kateab - it is so good to pass stuff on, isn't it? Like a thread running through the generations, no matter how small or semmingly insignificant.fenngirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10489287305498335499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4234053532391953224.post-21305195840424755612010-08-19T11:44:21.160+01:002010-08-19T11:44:21.160+01:00Love ice cream floats.

They now both adore Granny floats and they get monkey blood on their icecream too - rasberry sauce!Jen Walshawhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07374363403295342745noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4234053532391953224.post-71440720504633712862010-08-18T11:58:47.618+01:002010-08-18T11:58:47.618+01:00What fabby pictures and great memories xWhat fabby pictures and great memories xCaroljshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16622996745058583470noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4234053532391953224.post-49717799071046064782010-08-18T11:51:33.220+01:002010-08-18T11:51:33.220+01:00Loved this.

My "live" memory of them, was turning down tickets to see them at Wolverhampton Civic Hall as we could only get ones that included coach travel, which we didn't need. They'll play there again soon, we thought. No, they'd never play anywhere that small again.
