the old days
Grandad was reminiscing about the good old days....................
"When I were a young fella, in dream time, my mother would send me down t' corner store wi' a
shilling, and I'd come back wi' five pounds o' potatoes, two loaves o' bread, three pints o' milk,
a pound o' cheese, a packet o' tea, an' 'alf a dozen eggs, and a packet o' tobacco.
Yer can't do that now.
Too many f***** security cameras."

Heard a rumour, that in keeping with the new American connection, Liverpool are to be re-named "The Hub Cap Stealers", and will play in the new ground named "The San Giro Stadium."

Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt.
