Dirty bugger!

Anyone else feeling ever-so-slightly nauseous ?

Just a tad

Let's hope OL turns it into a series ... can't wait to find out how often he changes his undies

[qbman1]

Once a month? They will do back to front and inside out twice surely....?!

... which made a nice change from washing up liquid

Now there's posh - washing up liquid (don't think it had been invented when I was a lad!)

Nor me. I think water had only just been invented when I was a kid.

It certainly hadn't been bottled and sold at a 5000% mark-up

[Mervyn and Trish]

And even if it had been we could have taken the bottle back and got 3d for it.

[qbman1]

You must have grown up in an affluent area - it was 2d round our way

[Mervyn and Trish]

No, 3d where I was. Like the tellys.

Remember it well taking the empties back to the off licence at the back of the pub for a bit of pocket money.

[Mervyn and Trish]

I knew a smart kid who used to nick the empties from crates round the back of the pub to return them later for cash. Trouble is it turned out the landlord was smarter and spotted his ruse very quickly.

[Stephen]

I know, and he told my dad.

[Raybosailor]

When I was a young lad not quite old enough to drink me and my mates used to send big Ted in to the jug and bottle for a quart of nut brown and he would tell the man behind the bar it was for his dad.
One night we got rumbled cos Ted took the empty back to get a bag of crisps with the threepence on the bottle, the man said your dad's drunk that fast young un there's still froth in the bottle.

Next time we pee'd in the bottle to kill the froth.

Now that's what I call funny

You were lucky you only had to share the bath water with you sister. I had to share with the rest of the family, all five of us. Dad was always first, then mum, then me and my two sisters took it in turns each week who got in next, topping up with a bit more hot water each time.

which is where the saying, "throw the baby out with the bathwater" came from
