Wasn't that Rediffusion that you had the switch on your windowsill.

Aye my mam used to use a pommy stone on the steps I can also remember our table always seemed to be set brown sauce, tomato sauce, butter, loaf of bread, salt pepper sugar and a tin of fusses condensed milk.

About 30 years ago I bought an Airfix Supermarine Spitfire. Put it away and forgot about it. About 10 years later and by then married I found it. I thought it would be a good idea to construct it. Told Mrs EJK that’s what I was going to do. And apparently ‘I’ then thought it wasn’t a good idea because of all the paint I’d need to buy.

Jesus I need to go to spec savers I read an air fix submarine spitfire and I’m thinking what the bloody hell is one of those

Yes it was Rediffusion, I remember then digging the streets up to put the cables in and a few years later just cutting them off, there must be a few quid's worth of cable still in the ground
