| Barr_Beacon | Buffy needed in St Phillip's churchyard posted on: 2/17/2007 11:44:04 AM Most saturdays I have to walk through St Phillip's churchyard and witness the 'hilarious' antics of the scores of whey faced denizens that now inhabit it. I listened with astonishment a while ago as I heard some junior Nosferatu argue with his pal as to who was the 'fittest'; Lily Munster or Morticia Addams. I thought the undead weren't suppose to leave their graves until after the sun went down? |

replied on: 2/19/2007 7:44:20 AM ![]() ![]() no, i see what you mean. with the young goths, tho', surely there's a more erie churchyard to hang around in? personally i recomend Aston Manor on church lane, or St Mary's, opposite the Endwood, next to Handsworth park. (bonus prize to any necrophiles that can tell me which civic dignitaries are buried in each) |

replied on: 2/19/2007 4:34:10 PM Is it one of the Ansells (the brewing family)? Sir Ansell of Aston maybe? Them bastards are responsible for a good deal of my memories of the 1980's going missing. |

replied on: 2/22/2007 9:16:41 AM It's a shame it's not Tommy Ball the murdered comedian. Tell us more about the footballer, people don't generally get murdered for no reason. |

replied on: 2/22/2007 4:11:25 PM quote: The slightly eccentric local author (and Mitton nemesis), Dr Paul Lester, has published a booklet about the murder of Tommy Ball, available from Protean Pubs, 4 Milton Road, Bentley Heath, B93 8AA. |
