Wow! That is rare to have colour footage like that.

I know that Bob Hope started off in vaudeville. Perhaps Cagney did too.

There are similar problems with the native people here too and a lot of wrong was done to them by the white people. I'll never forget one thing which I read. Apparently the native women breast fed...

Sensible men have always been careful in their dealings with small children who are not their own. I remember my sister at 3 years old getting herself lost in Saltcoats when we were there on...

I think the victims probably did try to do something about it at the time but were told that they wouldn't be believed and they'd better keep their mouths shut. A few of them have said something...

The last one was so funny I really did laugh out loud :laugh2:

Where did the name Electric Scotland come from anyway?

Alastair, there is a lot of corruption in countries like India and eastwards. Indonesia has a very bad reputation too. This is one reason I would never holiday in Bali which is a popular...

On a plane some years ago when my kids were young teenagers, the pilot announced that we were about to land in Glasgow. My eldest turned to the youngest and said, " Just wait....Mum's going to start...

Alastair, my old great, great aunt who lived with us when I was a child, worked in a pharmaceutical wholesalers. She used to bring home all sorts of things like that. Remember cod liver oil? My...

Herbal products and vitamins seem to be a growing industry. I see lots of products in chemist shops and even the supermarkets. I advise people to be very careful about which products they mix as...

Funny how no-one has had anything to say about Margaret Thatcher, the milk snatcher. I've been surprised at the level hate after all these years. All my relatives in Scotland hated her during her...

Mine's a Logitech and it wasn't expensive. Can't remember how much it was. At least I had a Logitech until my son pinched it. It came with a disc with which to install it.

Ranald, dogs do suffer from separation anxiety. When my late husband died my dog ripped apart my wire gate with his teeth in an attempt to go and find him. The dog had never done this before. I...

Yes, hop on a plane to Edinburgh and get them to demonstrate it to you:laugh2::laugh2::laugh2: Sorry, couldn't resist that:angelic:

I wonder how much that study cost to tell us all what we already knew? There must be a lot of money wasted which could be put to better use. :unimpressed:

:laugh2: My late husband, who was German, used to love Allo Allo. He used to say "the bloody stupid Germans" :laugh2::laugh2:

Did you ever get in in America or Canada?

Elda

Fascinating! I love this kind of stuff. I'm printing this off so that I can read it better. Don't like reading online.

Elda

LOL!!!!

Did that really happen? I thought your dog was in Scotland. You get fined here if you let your dog off the leash in anything but a special area set aside for them. They are only allowed on certain...

Even rolling your own is expensive here Alastair. The tax is charged on the weight of the tobacco, you see. Doesn't matter if it's in a cigarette or loose.

You'd think they would have smelled the gas. I know that natural gas has no odour but something gets added to it apparently so that you can smell it. I have natural gas cooking, heating & hot...

Alastair, plain paper packaging for tobacco products was introduced here last year. Personally I don't get what difference that would make. People usually start smoking due to peer influence, not...

I'm no good at that kind of thing that's why I never did Doug's enigma either. Somehow, my brain just doesn't work like that. I'm no good at cryptic crosswords either. A lot of people did...
