Ay oop, ar kid, -2 chippies in "Doodley" -and Lenny Henry as well? -must be hell of a place! Lived in Brum in the 1960's myself for a while -Kings Heath area.

agin but I promise, the last time.

The Black Country Museum is quite a popular place. A bit of "Industrial History" including a mine, a canal going into a hillside where they mined limestone, and, of course, the village pub, which serves locallly brewed real ale (Banks's I believe). A couple of pints then across the street to the chippie which still does them the old fashioned way. As I said, it was so popular that they located period equipment etc. and opened another. Only problem with the place is that it costs a tenner to get in there, so quite an expensive visit to the chip shop.

I don't know about Lenny Henry but sister and Mother live on the Bournville estate next door to Kings Heath.
