So true :cry:

I have something to say............ It's better to burn out than to fade away..... :tt2:

i dont think the phrase "do gooders" is right at all - it should be "viruses" - an infection that spends all its life working against the common good. hang 'em all thats what i say

listen, i dont want to fall out with anyone, but its a joke, not a political debate on how the country should be run, just have a laugh and enjoy it as it is intended

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

 

Brilliant

 

 

AND

 

Remember when we were kids, we played out until it got too dark to see, went to bed tired out from the days activities, climbing trees, building a den, game of football, cricket, rounders, running until you were out of breath, laughing til' your sides ached.

When being cought with a weapon meant a catapult, snake belts, baseball boots, wearing an anorak when it rained, walking to school no matter what the weather was like, a foot of snow was a dream come true, a day off school coz the boiler was broke (YIPEEEE!).

Summers were HOT!, Winters were COLD!, Summer holidays, ice cream was one of the main food groups and came from a van that played a tune.

Those games that went on for weeks with every kid in the neighbourhood and then some, there was always a dog, everyone knew it's name but nobody owned it.

The Beano, Dandy, Beezer, penny sweets that cost a penny an old penny, Bazooka joe bubble gum and Blackjacks, fruit salads and flyin saucers, mystery flavour spangles, sharing a bottle of tizer with four or five mates.

Policemen carried wooden truncheons and wore proper helmets, older siblings were the cruelest tormentors AND the fiercest defenders, everyones Dad had a job and Mum was always home when you got in from school, you knew everyone in your road/street and so did your parents.

If someone got shot or stabbed it would be the headline story on news at ten read by Reginald Bosanquet.

Top tv, it's friday it's five to five and it's CRACKERJACK!!!, Patrick Troughton was Dr Who, Blue Peter with John Noaks (GET DOWN SHEP!), Catweasle, the tomorrow people, the double deckers, banana splits (tra la la.....la la la la).

Building a go kart with some old pram wheels (available for free on every railway embankment in the country), clackers (A set of which dangled from every telephone line).

Birds eye beef burgers for tea, Heinz beans (a million housewives every day pick up a tin of beans and say.......), Vesta chow mein, Mothers pride, a fry up was health food.

Not sleeping a wink on Christmas eve, not having a clue what you were getting for Christmas, genuinely feeling the peace on earth and good will to all men and of course snow.

You know what, we were well off and we didn't know it
