….protecting her new perm.
Having a pint with the pops in law and he's trying to remember a pub called Kelly's Yard. Seems to think it was downstairs in the Croc but I've drank in the Croc for years and seen no sign of stairs to a basement boozer. Anyone remember the bar and where it actually was?

And jam jars, every so often we'd go knocking on doors - got any spare jam jars missusA Refuse collector used to be named a Dustman.... plus he came around the back of your house for your dust bin on his shoulder tipped it on the lorry, & then replaced it back empty in the same place..... every week ..... the recycling crap was burnt on the coal fire & the glass bottles were returned for 3d = 1& 1/2 p
Better recycling done back then in the 1960s than it is today ...... less plastic used....
Even beer bottles at the off-licence - you could get money on too - as kids we used to search for empties, a good top-up to our pocket money .... we even used to try passing foreign coins out of mates collections to buy sweets
Then take them to Irwin's the Grocers and get 1/2d each
Luxury!
Jam jars my great Aunt gave us loads to go Blackberry picking & make the most fantastic Homemade Blackberry Jam for every Jam Jar full of ripe Blackberries we go 1d plus me being family she would send a lovely jar of homemade jam around we only lived 5 doors away - the blackberries were on the perimeter fence of the Tushingham brickworks - Happy days ....

Remember Mom having the orange set
I’ll start by saying I’ve had a very stressful week at work ….very stressful. Anyhow, I bought a box of 10 lagers on the way home with the intention of having 3 or 4 to help me relax a little this evening…. But …. Ashamedly … I started watching a film , then another … before I knew it I’d finished the 10 cans. … not good. But the story doesn’t end there…. I felt an uneasy feeling in my stomach… tried to fight it but I had no chance… I had to run up the stairs to the bathroom… and there the dilemma began …. I had to choose between sitting down, putting on my glasses first or accessing my phone …. Needless to say, sitting down won the day ….,I’m never drinking alcohol again
It’s been a while since I’ve had to try and sleep with head spins, anxiety and the mrs moaning
On this day in history remembering 10p bags from Pats Sweet Shop opposite King Harry pub. Happy days of my younger years x
Feel better mate!
