Was 'tree-mendous' fun, I can tell you.
Know what you mean there, Ian! Brought back memories of my first ever sherbet fountain (and, of course the associated pleasures of seeing Bobby Moore presenting the 1945 budget, live(!) on the wireless!). But of course you and I are getting a bit old in the tooth to be troubling the youngsters with such cricketing trivia! |

Yes, I remember that, I connect it all with Sir Stafford Cripps, who knew when he'd been tangoed. But in the midst of all that, Flanagan turned up, asking to go to Sidcup, and I saw him expand outwards, thinking this was body-popping, but he said that it must be all that McVities topping. |

Martle,
I hope you weren't in a public house wearing a hat when you were listening to the wireless in 1945.

What were the laws of admissibility of evidence at that stage, Tony? |

The grime readily transfers to piano keys if not washed off before practice.

It all depends - I think you might be demonstrating a disturbing tendency to conflate the Risorgimento with the actions of average small business owners, with the connivance of their white-collar employees, in bringing about such a situation. |

This is an amazing thread. At last I can actually understand what Ian is saying.

Yes- but what none of you are telling me is which sort of cheese will actually give me the best nightmares.

1. No 2. Not really 3. 47 Which explains why I always end up in Seven Sisters if I don't take the Circle Line. I thought it was 42. BTW, Stuart Macrae, did Kate get home safely? I can recommend Asda's cheddar if it helps. |

I take it as axiomatic that clergy wives are predisposed towards myalgic encephalomyelitis.
