Missing Wednesday

Hey everyone, sorry about today. I had done all of the posts this month ahead of time… but apparently I forgot about today.

Posting will resume Friday.

  • Not a problem, Andrew! We do forgive you! Your tireless efforts make me want to exclaim, "Thank you, guv'nor! You're a mighty fine gent!"

  • Andrew, do you mind if we use this story as a place for suggesting future topics?

    I, for one, absolutely love the photos you have posted of the Devonshire Mall. The name is most regal, and the photos are a true testament to times gone by. I would be most pleased to see more such photos!

    And old photos of Windsor's superb bowling alley establishments would be most interesting to see, too!

  • I'd love to see a "Devonshire Mall, through the years" type of post. Devonshire Mall had a slide show of photos from the past, but just after I found it, they seemed to have taken it down. Remember the creepy statues in the old food court?

    Andrew, anything on the old Windsor Star building? I was surprised to see the demolition crews tearing down everything, but the historic facade.

  • Uzzy, my word! I do recall viewing those most awful statues during one of my visits. Were they not suspended from the ceiling? And were they not depictions of old women and youth? I would most assuredly be interested in seeing photographs of them, for even today I feel their presence, and I have not been to that mall in, if my accounting is correct, over two decades!

  • John, at least one was hanging from the ceiling. Maybe more. They looked like creepy old grandparents, with their just as creepy grandchildren. *shudders*
