You played out till all hours your mum would call you in for your tea and you'd run in and have it and then go round your mate's and have another tea there and we all had choppers apart from those who couldn't afford a chopper and had one of those shit ones spangles and then Tomorrow's World before Top of the Pops and dad would be all like what's this shit and there was no central heating and the teachers would lock you in the cupboard and make the girls stand on their heads so they could see their pants and spangles and it all ended the day Danny Rideout got his head kicked in by some big boys round the back of the Arcade.

Out of the two, I reckon Catweazle needs the most mothering ;-)...

They didn't put chalk in, the white was calcium from bonemeal.


There's much less bonemeal in animal feed these days because of fears that nerve tissue inside bones may carry prions - the proteins thought to be behind variant Creutfeld Jacob Disease (vCJD), mad cow disease and scrapie.

    • My mum (91 years young!) well remembers going to Austin's as a child, which she described as an 'Aladdin's Cave'!  She absolutely loved it - and is still a shopping fiend to this day (I 'blame' Austin's 😉). Going back up Peckham Rye, passing Austin's on your right hand-side, just past Phillips Walk (so not far from Austin's at all), I believe there was a British Relay Wireless shop - this would have been in the late 1930s/early 1940s.  Does anyone know anything about this? My grandad (my mum's dad) used to manage it; it was severely damaged in The Blitz - but I am having trouble locating it.  Mum's memory is dim (she was 6 at the time); she originally thought it was in Rye Lane, but we think now it was in Peckham Rye just up from Phillips Walk (originally Phillips Road). 
    • Thanks everyone, this will need to be reported again as the fox was still mobile and walking down the road when last seen... hopefully someone will spot and report.
