I remember telling my Son about The Spastics Society and had to prove to him it was real. I then explain dit had become such a derogatory word that they rebranded with SCOPE and overnight everyone was calling each other "Scopers"! :lol:

Cheeky cockerney sparrow selling the one he 'found' left outside a charity shop.

'Come getcher Spastic doll! Ideal Christmas present! Makes an ideal brolly stand! Only one left. Just a tenner to you, guv.' :thumbup:



Just looking at the people in the background. Do you think one market stall was doing blue raincoats on special?

He always seemed a bit detached to me. Playing in a cottage industry left him feeling a bit flat.

Nearly 50 years ago, plans were published to scrap many of London’s famous red buses to replace them with something that could have become just as famous – a monorail network.
The scheme was proposed by Brian Waters, and endorsed by Desmond Plummer, leader of the Conservative opposition at the GLC. It would have seen four large loops built above the streets of London carrying the monorail services.

:shock:

In the 1930s baby cages were touted as the ‘it’ parenting product in Britain, with mothers everywhere dangling their tots out of windows and inside hutch-like contraptions so that their bundles of joy could be ‘aired’ and enjoy the fresh, outdoor air – without crawling away.
