God..yes I remember those bliddy liberty-bodices..and the pink net party frock that scrathched the skin off till you bled. Turning a frozen stretch of pavement into a slide and going on it in my plastic [red]sandals coz it made me slide faster and ‘Rag tag and Bobtail’ on Watch With Mother and the spazzy kid in the class with round, pink National Health glasses with one eye patched over. Lyon’s individual fruit pies and Lost In Space on a Saturday night. Following me big sister everywhere and annoying her mates…thumpin’ all me li’l bruvver’s mates as well. Getting skelped for trying to buy a Mr. Whippy with plastic buttons. Tudor crisps and sarsparilla..frozen jubilees..black jacks. Being made to stay at the table for three hours until I ate my tripe and onions School dinners and the fight over the custard skin..kiss-me chases and skipping ropes in the playground. “Tales Of The Riverbank”..Sindy Dolls without bosoms..Clarke’s patent shiny shoes. Feck we were miserable :lol:
