    I found a big stash of old Frankie Vaughan VHS and DVD's.
    As a responsible father my missus forced me to give them all away to a single mate.







    luckily I have the internet

    As in you bought that paper and stuck it in the loft, or it was left by a previous owner?

    Last time I went in the loft I inadvertently stuck my foot through the roof of the flat next door, so I tend to avoid going in there now.

    The holes in the tops of the buses were a bit small in those days. You would have a job getting today's 22 man squads in there.

    When we moved into our house last year (it's quite old) we went into the loft space and there was an old chest in there, a proper wooden nineteenth century thing. Having established there were no dead bodies hidden inside (nor sadly a secret treasure map) we decided it would look great in the house. Only ... it was too big to get through the loft hatch ..... the mystery of how it got up there was solved when we found out from a person who knew the house well that there used to be a larger loft hatch in the hall. So it is currently still up there ....

    Just put it in the wash, you've got other shirts that are just as nice.

    I found a stash of my old man's Playboy's and ended up with a Frankie Vaughan.
