I couldn't quite believe that one either.



I'll add hearing "thank you Sir" in a shop instead of "cheers mate". Just downright bad manners.

I hear "thank you sir" from 1 employee at least whenever I shop in Tesco's in High Street........

Although me being young, I tend to say "cheers mate" quite a lot.......I did it when I used to do till work.......

As for things we don't see anymore: The grass bank on the Old Cowshed.......

Don't see that Ready Brek advert with the glowing kids. Think it disappeared shortly after Chernobyl...

Quite. Ukranian children seem to have a certain glow about them though.


By the way Sumner, Boris has an excellent column in the Daily Telegraph.

I don't see my grandad anymore. Mind you we cremated him 10 years ago so i guess it would be unlikely.
