I saw the last train to Clarksville. Not at all what I expected.
It is strange, that you build a picture in your mind’s’ eye, what a place may look like. Do any of you do this?
anyone seen “killing eve” looks good!

You are so witty young Spitty.![]()
I once told a girlfriend my favourite band was The Monkees.
…then I saw her face…
Now I’m a believer.
Sausage rolls, Swiss rolls and the Monkees, strange bedfellows indeed. I love the wife’s battered Cod with chips on Fridays and Wednesdays.
There’s a pet shop near me called “Paddy’s Pets” he specialises in Birds. Paddy is always playing tricks on his customers but he’s going a bit ga ga now, he was arrested yesterday after a complaint sent in to the Guards by an old lady, he was taken away to the station for questioning, I met one of the arresting coppers in the local last night and asked him what had Paddy done wrong “Dirty old bugger, he had his bare arse in the window for a Lark”
“And did he sing?”
‘and did IT sing’ might have had more impact Jem?? - just sayin??
the laughometer was showin low down here?? otherwise mate a bloody good tale! well done - again!!
He he Jem,
How much is that doggie in the window?
The one with the waggly tail
How much is that doggie in the window?
I do hope that doggie’s for sale.
Lita Rosa never mentioned arses in her old song.
My family back in the day used to sing together in the car on long boring journeys.
A favourite was a parody of TWENTY TINY FINGERS. It started off in the 1980s as the original lyrics but over the years morphed into
Oooooh! Twenty tiny fingers, twenty tiny toes
Two angel faces, each with a turned up nose
One looks like mummy, with a cute little curl on top
And the other one’s got a mole on his bum
Exactly like his pop, pop, pop
Pop-a-dop, pop, pop
Pop-pop.
Alma Cogan, bless her cotton socks & bless her mother still sewing in Glory thousands of sequins by hand onto Alma’s flouncy frocks.

By God that song brings back memories RJ, My mother and her sister were always singing it and laughing when it came out first, little did I know that my mother, a twin herself, was pregnant with my youngest brother, I still know the words of it by heart.
Thanks for the memory.
Good luck with the smart TV Spitty.
I was going to get one last year but then I saw a smart box on Aliexpress, it was only 20 euro’s post free, I sent off for it and it’s an amazing little gadget, about 5 inches by 4 inches and you stick it onto the back of any TV and you have access to Google, tube, forums, everything, i was so pleased with it I sent away for another one for the upstairs TV, honestly a great buy.
The way I see it is if you fork out big money for a smart TV and something goes wrong with the screen or whatever your internet on it goes too, with this you can always switch your box to another TV, it comes with remote control and all the cables, plus you can use it with a mouse and keyboard, the 5V power can be got from your USB port of the TV or through the supplied mains adapter.(Is that adapter or adaptor?, who cares you know what I mean)
