Stop Me If You’ve Heard This One
October 27th, 2009
Having successfully re-introduced the word ‘loins’, the yo-yo and the finger waggle into the 21st century I am now on the lookout for further relics from the past to lighten up, brush over with some foundation and stick them in a public viewing box for 80p a pop.
Let’s get together a focus group and get some ideas brewing. Come on, chop chop!

Boglins, awww yeah. Now there’s a name I haven’t heard in the last twenty years. Do you still have yours? 😛

And it’d be covered in dust and slime and road signs by now. Another classic lost in time.
I think me mam chucked out all me old toys when I wasn’t bothered anymore. Where’s my Getalong Gang playset? Where’s my Ghostbusters car? Where’s my Thundercats toyset?
Why aye oughtaaaa…

Double dips. It’s high time the humble double dip made it back into British life.
WHERE’S MY CHUFFING DOUBLE DIP, GORDON BROWN?

Double dip? As in the sherbert thingys? You were given them as toys? That’s tragic.
