    You'll be telling me next that you don't remember liberty bodices, or coal fires, ice on the inside of windows, or jubblies, the original Man from Uncle or when BBC2 was first broadcast:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    I am pleased some bugga is older than me :rotfl:

    I had no idea about a liberty bodice, we got rid of our coal fire in 2002 (worst thing we ever did) yeah remember ice in bedroom windows, are jubblies not still about? :eek: I always think of Man from Uncle when I see Ducky in NCIS.

    What years was BBC2 first broadcast?

    Ooh, I thought David McCallum was gorgeous, and still not bad now. Always did like blonds.

    Not seen a jubbly in years.

    BBC2 started in 1964 in black and white, 1967 in colour, on 625 lines (BBC1 and ITV were on 405 lines and we used to have to switch the aerial plug in the socket at the back of the tv)

    What about reddifusion, or lucky numbers, or half crowns?

    Now your showing your age, those were even before my time :eek:

    Now you have me wondering how old Marg is, but as we know you never ask a lady her age ;)

    Marg can you remember BBC2 starting?
    Or Winston Churchills death?

    I remember having to switch the plug in the back of TVs and reddifusion.

    As David McCallum isn't dead yet you are using the wrong tense he is gorgeous.
    Rational judgement, now, at this very moment.

    Virtuous action, now, at this very moment.
    (Wisdom, Courage, Self-control, Justice)

    Willing acceptance - now, at this very moment - of what you can’t change
