Oswestry branch of Wetherspoons.
There's something very funny about Wetherspoons having an article on their website about the pub and Oswestry at large, in quite a lot of detail, full of photographs of photos seemingly taken at what must be the local museum? Sure, why not! It also includes a picture of this pub which manages to make it look even more bleak, against all odds.

The New Saints won the Cymru Premier last weekend, and quite frankly we believe more championship trophies should be replete with rampant dragons. From These Football Times

While on military training during World War Two, Gilbert Bradley was in love. He exchanged hundreds of letters with his sweetheart - who merely signed with the initial "G". But more than 70 years later, it was discovered that G stood for Gordon, and Gilbert had been in love with a man. Information gleaned from the letters indicate Mr Bradley was a reluctant soldier. He did not want to be in the Army, and even pretended to have epilepsy to avoid it. His ruse did not work, though, and in 1939 he was stationed at Park Hall Camp in Oswestry, Shropshire, to train as an anti-aircraft gunner. He was already in love with Gordon Bowsher. The pair had met on a houseboat holiday in Devon in 1938 when Mr Bowsher was in a relationship with Mr Bradley's nephew. Mr Bowsher was from a well-to-do family. His father ran a shipping company, and the Bowshers also owned tea plantations. When war broke out a year later he trained as an infantryman and was stationed at locations across the country. At one point, Mr Bradley was sent to Scotland on a mission to defend the Forth Bridge. He met and fell in love with two other men. Rather surprisingly, he wrote and told Mr Bowsher all about his romances north of the border. Perhaps even more surprisingly, Mr Bowsher took it all in his stride, writing that he "understood why they fell in love with you. After all, so did I". Although the couple wrote throughout the war, the letters stopped in 1945. Mr Bradley moved to Brighton and died in 2008. A house clearance company found the letters and sold them to a dealer specialising in military mail. Perhaps most poignantly, one of the letters contains the lines: "Wouldn't it be wonderful if all our letters could be published in the future in a more enlightened time. Then all the world could see how in love we are." (Full article)

Happy 87th Birthday Scottish actress Sheila Reid born December 21st 1937 in Glasgow.
Sheila grew up in Bridge of Weir before her father's army career took the family to India. She was then educated at Moreton Hall School a boarding independent school for girls, near the market town of Oswestry in Shropshire, in central England.
Best known for playing Madge Harvey in the ITV sitcom Benidorm. An original member of the Royal National Theatre in 1963, she played Bianca in the National's 1965 film version of Othello, with Laurence Olivier in the title role.
Sheila has been acting on stage and screen now since the early 60's, her appearances include, Z Cars, The Sweeney, The Bill, Dr Who, All Creatures Great and Small and of course Taggart. Other notable Scottish roles have been in Doctor Finlay, Monarch of the Glen and more up to date she was in Sea of Souls, Bob Servant and Case Histories.
It will always be her role as Madge Harvey that she will be best known for in Benidorm. She appeared as was one of the primary characters in the show, appearing in every episode of the series since its inception in 2007 until her departure in the second episode of series 7.
Madge returned for a special guest appearance in the third episode of the eighth series. Madge is portrayed as a mean-spirited and acid-tongued pensioner, and is known for her chain-smoking and her trademark usage of a mobility scooter, despite being able-bodied.
Sheila is still working, she was in an episode of the hit BBC comedy The Cleaner recently, and in the conedy film Portraits of Dangerous Women this year, I might see if I can find the latter online, it has a 7.7/10 score on Imdb. Two user reviews give it a ten.
