Last post by Scrumpy - Today at 02:43:25 PM

I have every theatre program and sales ticket from all the shows I have seen going way back.. Every program I have written a remark on ..
I also have charity pins dating way back.. They sit in a big hat box..
I have a few train/tram/bus tickets from countries abroad..
  Such wonderful memories..

Mine or yours Ethel asked Joe
Joe was excited. This gal was not slow 
But a tap on the shoulder
Stopped him getting bolder - 
It was his missus - Flo!


Flo gave him a good box round the ear
Then soaked Ethel's frock with his beer

Quote from: Scrumpy on Today at 11:56:59 AMBread and dripping for you this week Mups.. :sad:

More like just the bread, Scrumps.   
Can't be too extravagant now,  not when I've got the car insurance next month too! 
Sometimes it all seems to come at once, doesn't it.  Then before we know it,  it'll be Chr . . . .mas!    :lipsrsealed:

Quote from: Scrumpy on Today at 11:50:52 AMI don't subscribe to anything anymore... They get too greedy.. and ask for more..
 If I see a person with a collection tin and I want to donate.. then I will..
I  don't feel guilty walking by
.. those days are long gone..
 Some charity shops are guilty of this too.. I have seen items (dearer) than the shop price..
When you consider everything is donated by the public and the (workers) do not get paid.. Yet those at the top make a fortune.. for themselves.. Scandalous..
I agree with both the parts I have hi-lighted, Scrumps.
I'm afraid I walk past most people waving a collection tin at me now.

Just been going through some boxes of bits and bobs from the house move last year. I found a "Jim fixed it for me" pin badge which I won, I had to guess the weight of two snooker balls in a leather pouch whilst blindfolded.
It was a long time ago, happy memories

Funding: The service operates independently of central government funding, relying almost entirely on voluntary donations, legacies, and public support.
