Do any of you crowd remember BT? That's "Before Television" for the uninitiated. What I shall never forget is the Ovaltinies on 208 Radio Luxemburg.
Now that's nostalgia!
So much for the past and now for the present. My present is the biggest sherry trifle the universe has ever seen so I will just dive in and get eating.
By the way, I would watch that house Claret if I were you, do they really make Claret in Patagonia?

Hope the grass is shorter but greener for you Opto - I'm peering
at the hedge outside,which appears to have woken up from
the winter to grow with a vengence.
Before TV????.....Hmmmmm I must have been a twinkle in Daddy Bunny's
eye at that time, I remember black and white - an achievement
according to my kids of dubious merit! - but before TV - No 'fraid not.
Little Woman - the weather's better now isn't it? Brighter and
happier all round!! (I finished the dreaded tax return yesterday
and sent it off today, so doubly happy for me today!!)
Poochy = tell that ghost he's not allowed in the ladies please, he
keep materialising in the bowl and it's very off-putting!!!!!

Good afternoon y'all.
Just got in from cutting the grass. Lawn looks like a billiard table. A nice cup of tea and a cream bun will go down very nicely now.

Finished the grass marathon, cut mine and my elderly neighbours two lawns. Then just for good measure I replaced a rotten fence post, easy until it came to removing the concrete at the base. Why didn't they have metal fenceing spikes some 30 years back! All done now, why isn't my portfolio as productive!!

Good morning opto'. Enjoy the wedding and don't eat too much cake.
I'm off to a Family History Fair in Gloucester and it's a lovely, sunny day here.

What-ho all, loved the nostalgia trip, I remember Brian Blessed made his name in Z cars and as an ex-filth it wasn't a bad prog.
Radio Luxumberg heard via a cats whisker through a crystal set, Horace Batchelor promising that he'd guarantee we'd all win the Pools from his little house in Keynsham...what fabulous marketing that was!! Quite illegal today of course, he must have died a wealthy man.
Can almost hear the sound of the great UK motor mower marathon all trhe way over here in a beautiful hot & sunny winter SA, difference being all the lawns here [there are acres and acres of them, locally they're called 'fairways!] are
all cut for us. No satisfaction in that eh??!!
Jeffmack, did you recieve Hils 'Ron Atkinson' joke? Fabulous or what? They don't take long to come out do they.
Opto enjoy the wedding and the bridesmaids providing they're over 16 yrs.
Snoball, has your lawn got six big pockets round the edges? Probably where Bunnywunny's been digging.
All the rest enjoy the weekend.

Well done Lord Hightone, he takes the lead in the Investment Game.
Remember that next weekend players may trade one of their stocks with only one month to go!
I myself will not be making any changes! :-)
Bunny, Who said that Ghosty was a he? could be a she! I think it depends on the situation in hand? It's a variable Ghost. :-)
What with all this nostalgia memories, do any of you remember the dinosaurs? just asking!

Been trying to remember what they call the adult bridesmaid;
"Maid of Honour" thats the one to get round the back of the marquee after a few glasses of 'Cristal'.......
Evil minds at work or what?
I don't do weddings myself, hate 'em; funerals now their a different matter..
