Knickers and stockings 

More like bloody bloomers in those days.

RIP Alan Simpson. Comedy genius.

I've never stored my ketchup in the fridge. Don't know what all the fuss is about.

I'll get my coat. I could pass for under 40.

Actually,I won't bother. They have a very novel way of carrying bagels to the table. I haven't dined there since.

I have always stored them in the fridge once opening.

I remember going to a restaurant one time and I was about to put some Heinz on my chips from one of the traditional glass bottles. I had shook it with the lid on (obviously) and when I took the top off the ketchup inside shot out all over everywhere like it had exploded.

I'm pretty sure that the ketchup in the bottle had gone off and you could tell that it had never seen a fridge.

Breadders will probably know the answer.

I had a pair of white Levi's on as well at the time.

Right! That's it.
I'll never erase that picture from my mind.
White Levi's!
I'm going to bed with a bottle of Scotch.

I tend to put most foodstuff in the fridge, things like ketchup, eggs, chocolate, bananas, bread even batteries - which I know isn't foodstuff but I read somewhere they lasted longer - I can't confirm they do but I always know where to look when I need one!

I guess most houses these days don't even have a larder and the youngsters on here (40 or under) probably don't even know what one is!

Bananas? That's a new one on me.

Years ago we didn't have to put jam in the fridge,but with a lower sugar content in modern day jam,it's a must.

As for batteries Sluffy,you might be interested in this. Swings and roundabouts maybe.

Practically speaking, however, there’s next to no reason to put your batteries in the fridge. Whatever gains you might get in shelf-life using the technique would be offset by potential problems. Micro condensation on and inside the battery can damage it and cause corrosion. Extremely low temperatures (such as a very chilly portion of the fridge or placing them in a freezer as some people erroneously advise) can further damage the batteries. Even if you don’t outright damage the battery, you have to wait for the battery to warm up to use it and keep it from gathering condensation if the room is humid. In essence, you’re risking ruining your batteries to squeeze a few months of storage out of them and, further, the batteries that benefit most from cold storage are rechargeable and could have just been recharged prior to your intended use. To seal our stance on leaving your batteries at room temperature, the manufacturers themselves officially recommend against it. So, buy your battery storage box, but keep it in a cool, dry, and non-refrigerated location.

Shut it.

Did I mention that I am a proud owner of a pair of boat shoes similar to the bloke in that pic?

Why am I not surprised?
This explains a lot with regard to your musical taste.

Another old programme. Anyone old enough to remember the Anglo-French-Scottish Friendship Cup?

Liking the new avi Boncey. I love pictures like that.

Me too, it's a fantastic picture that brings lots of memories back.

I can still smell the piss from those urinals in that pic!

No wonder Breadman's been quiet of late.
