Have you relations in St Anne’s?

My Blackpool/Lytham St Annes relatives, my mother's family , were Bullens. My father's family , Buckley, came from Cheshire where folk are that posh they get out of the bath to have a pee.

Leader of Fylde Council is Karen Buckley.......

No relative of mine. The next generation , my cousins via the Bullen line were Hills, Woolcocks, Goodchilds , Smiths and Millars.

In Australia, a common expression is 'You've got Buckleys' meaning you've got no chance!

 

[Premier 1]

Well they do say a lot of Australians are chancers !

 

[BobHatton]

Good job I'm not Australian then isn't it?

 

[Premier 1]

I had better not answer that do not want to be sent to Coventry for 30 days..

 

[Bear1951]

Isn't the most annoying thing on earth those rootless creatures who adjust their allegiances according to convenience? One day they are Lancastrian, the next they are Welsh before reverting to being Aussie or anything else that comes to mind.

 

[BobHatton]

Never been Aussie. Welsh by birth, Kiwi by citizenship.

The Welsh are supposed to be the last of true Britain’s an ancient tribe....

Ancient Britons.


I thought the Welsh were a sub species of dwarf hominids endangered since their underground habitat was blocked up by Lady Thatcher.
