Eat your crusts or you won’t get curly hair. Who’s to say I ever wanted curly hair in the first place.

 

[sixthswan]

Had to check, didn't think totp went back to 1964...they did Wanna be your man.
First tv appearance was on Thank your lucky stars 1963 doing Chuck Berry's Come On .
Load of yobs said my mum, not like those smart Beatles lads.

There was some truth in the 9 o'clock horses.

Local farmers would collect human waste, after 9pm, for use as fertiliser.

There were tales that children were snatched, as cheap farm labour.

Larkin was right when he wrote:
"They fuck you up, your Mum and Dad,
they may not mean to, but they do.
They fill you with all the faults they had,
then add some extra, just for you"

 

[Filbo65]

I remember Billy Connolly questioning "I'll take my hand off your face"

 

[Chip kobb]

Don't come running to me when you've broken your leg.

Kinell, we've had Peggy Mount on another thread, now Larkin. All we need now is for someone to bring up a Kossoff and we've got a TV programme.

PS Younger viewers need not apply.
