There was a mechanic in Derrington called BJ's Autos.... moved to Scotland now I believe...I saw a shop in Coalville called BJs tackle. It made me laugh.
The shop next door says, "Strictly Nails".........with another sign directly below advertising sunbeds.

They're ok until they start burying their nuts. I've had walnut trees sprouting in my lawn.
When some of us from Gec measurements worked in the 'Old Hough' for ages , a big old house surrounded by trees in the grounds just down from The Hew Hough , (and an air raid shelter....we had great fun there!) , we had a squirrel who used to come and sit on the windowsill and tap on the window daily to be fed bits of our sandwiches.Some years back my uncle Alan Clay (used to work at St Georges long ago) lived in Tividale with a wood at the back of the garden. He took to putting a few nuts out for the squirrels, and eventually he could get them to come right up to him for a feed. It goes without saying he named them all 'Cyril.' (To avoid confusion.)
The living room faced out to the back, and Cyril the Squirrel got so cheeky he would actually get onto the window sill and tap the window to get his grub. I was amazed when I first saw it, and Alan got up straight away to go out and feed him. It was clear to see who called the tune in that house.
