I'm so old I remember Page 5

..when sitcoms were funny and sitcommy. And were shown before 10 o'clock. Ah, those were the days. Wispy dreams pick me up and float me off into the airy night.

" sings gently for Alfred" . . 'When you wish upon a star . . '

FUCK THAT ! Angry

Four f**kin' times tonight !

Ha ha, you've clearly upset the God of interweb forums somewhere along the way. Maybe you should examine your conscience. Maybe the god's a baggies fan who thinks the Quo are worse than Wham. ? Or you can't count to 15.

The latter would appear to be the answer but if one has something to say that's censorship by default !

I'm so old I can remember when Quo weren't an embarrassment.

When coppers hit ya, teachers hit ya and ya mam hit ya. Cor.

When the 'F' word was only said by ruffians.

when reg varney was alive
when coppers had big black hats
when bob grant was alive

When you brought old pop bottles back to the shop and you would get money back!

When you had the choice of clear or yellow lemonade.

When beer was 10p a pint

When there was only beer in pubs (no lager)

Still on pubs - you could buy a packet containing a cheese triangle, 2 silverskin onions 2 crackers and a wooden knife.

When my first wage was £4 17/6d (to side-track a little - what was your first wage?)

I'm so old I used to be permitted to hit Goodlad

I so old I remember bins without wheels. And when everything went into the bin. Cardboard. Plastic bottles. Glass.

Twizzle

I still have a Twizzle annual.

No bathroom, washing machine, car or phone. Power cuts, Tilley lamps,
saving tokens from marmalade jars to get free golliwogs.

Tilley Lamps sounds like a 1930s page 3 girl

:D

What was yellow lemonade all about then?
