Me too Barrie. Nothing like seeing Ossie by night from the moors road.
When my son was little we were on our way to Ossie and my mum-trying to keep him occupied - told him that all the lights he could see from the moors road were 'silly buggers'. As we got nearer to Ossie and he saw the lights of the town, he said, " Oh, look Grannie , Ossie is full of 'silly buggers"
...Out of the mouths of babes... as they say.
For me Ossie will always be home!
