🚸 Things you miss from your childhood

Our milkman was called Mr Light and he lived opposite us until he hanged himself from his bannister.
edit: I don’t miss him, he was a miserable cunt.

Fuck You!! You missed Rickets and Rag, Tag & Bobtail…

Either my memory is bad or I had an underwhelming childhood but at present cannot think of anything I particularly miss.
Maybe some family members, a few pets and long holidays in Dorset.

Seems reasonable to me… :wink:

I do miss those Golden Wonder Sausage and Tomato crisps though…

Slightly ā€˜sexist’ or at least feeding stereotypes ads on TV. Oxo where always about the wifey cooking dinner… but this with the immortal ’ what will you give your old man with his steakhouse grill?’ is a ā€˜classic’

And the reason I started supporting Saints

Very much this

I know it’s not right to judge by my own poor standards, but the school disco crap of trying to snog a bird after a can of cola (circa 14 years of age), very soon gave way to trying to finger the girls up the garages after some home brew nicked from the old man’s store (circa 15 years of age - see Bletchs scampi fries) to trying to get the girls to blow you at house parties after 4 cans of Holstein Export nicked from the local offie (circa 16 years of age) to trying to bang them (before throwing up) at other house parties after 4 more cans of Holstein Export and a quarter bottle of Voddie (circa 16.5 years of age). Then bragging about what you had or hadn’t done.

Naturally, I’d be fucking gutted if I even got a sniff of some rancid little cunt trying this on with my daughter.

Oh, and Spangles. I miss Spangles.

I’m just glad no one’s said ā€˜giving blowjobs to the local priest…’

Bloody hell @saintbletch, damn you. I’ll raise you:

Edit: why just the URL? Copy and paste from Twatter and the BBC, for example seem to work…)

I edited it for you. You seem to have edited it back.

There is a space in front of the URL. Delete that and it should work.

Carlsberg Special Brew…
Amazingly refound it 25 years ago at an African bar in Dubai just after I landed under the name of Elephant Brew

Weird - all I did was copy and paste, nothing else…

You did nothing wrong except put a space in front of the URL you pasted. It’s still there. Edit the post and remove the leading space and it should work.
