Faggots,
/QUOTE]

still see them at our local butcher. Some in our freezer now.

I used to be partial to Brains faggots, but they changed the recipe. Too salty now.

Working in a house yesterday, the dad shouted to his kid "here's the lemonade man"

what ever happened to kids washing cars for 50p or Carroll singing ? I was minted when I was young !

 

[Ray Stafford]

I was minted when I was young !

30p a bucket picking blackcurrants. On a good day, if it had rained hard overnight, you could pick 12 buckets a day.

4 weeks backbreaking work, enough money to last until Xmas.

Isn't wales a developing country still tho? Bit confused that you have copper waste pipes? Didn't realise you had fresh water pipes yet?

Wanted to say Caramac the other day but couldn't think of the name. Where did you buy this latest one from?

Also, another thing I thought I wouldn't see again was one of Britain's former most wanted. He got out early and was hugging me in the pub earlier, why he thinks I was glad to see him is beyond me. Can't stand him.

Bit more violent than Mr Brittas I'm afraid. Anyway, The Brittas Empire can still be seen on one of those dementia channels, Dave or something.

Get frig rolls anywhere.

Lemon puffs are minging.

Dunno what a Gypsy cream is.

Clubs? I used to live on them. My cousin worked in the Jacobs factory near me. Eat too many and you end p with one foot bigger than the other you know!

 

[tamz]

Not i my house yu dont

 

[Keefy]

That's either an innuendo or you don't like them. [?]

 

[PlumbBobBob]

nor mine can't stand them

 

[Ermintrude]

Real fig rolls with a proper cupper !?

 

[Ray Stafford]

I share your pain. You can get Clubs, but you can't get the proper Clubs, where the chocolate would break away from the biscuit perfectly.

Always been the way with women, as soon as their feet are under the table everything goes wrong with them that prevents any further use of the best parts!
