I am aghast at the lack of genuine excitement around everything tea towel related. When I was their age, I had never seen an actual tea towel, I had heard of them, obviously, but my mother was old school and dried the dishes with an old pair of American Tan tights. I once asked her, why we didnt have real tea towels, and used smelly old tights, that soaked up fuck all water. Once I regained consciousness, we all had a right laugh at my stupidity and balls out insobordination.

The day I left home for my own place, you guessed it, straight to the haberdashery and I bought myself a pack of three tea towels. What a day that was. White with little Robins. I'm filling up just thinking about it.

The young today don't know they're fucking born. Cunts.
A very good post and I am glad I have a tea towel aficionado on board.
My early life was also blighted by them but we suffered the opposite, too many. I always seemed to use the wrong ones. I recall using a 1953 Coronation tea towel and could not sit down for a week when my mam found out. How was I to know it was a Radio Times Souvenir Edition



and it wasn't to be used for wanking into.
 
Ooooooohh! The memories come flooding back! Through one ear and out the other.....


Brilliant, what made me smile was Fred Tilson heading the rock hard 'casey' for 10 minutes. No one mentioned dementia then.
Also good to see Matt Busby, younger Blues won't know he played for us but may sing a certain song, it might remind them not to.
 
i know that forums are skewed towards older folks, the young 'uns are on other platforms, but there are only TWO people (so far) in the 18-25 category??
 
The Tomahawk was the gateway to a Chopper but the Chopper was crap so i sacked it off for a Grifter (which were the future then). Just had a look at ebay..if i still had all three I could make enough for a holiday in Italy!

I had a chopper, mine was a mark 1 according to the internet. Was a fucking death trap although it never managed to kill me despite its best efforts. Anyroad a mint looking mk1 on eBay wanting £2k!!??!! I wouldn’t dream of putting my kids on one as I like them too much so who the fuck would buy one? Maybe a middle aged bloke like me, but riding down the street on one of them would be a sight to behold!!

He’s a City legend.

229 games for the club, a big part of our 1934 FA Cup winning and 1937 League title winning teams.

Should he thought of just like Brian Kidd is.

Off Topic doesn’t get the same clientele as the other part of the forum. I bet a poll in the Transfer Forum would skew the age range more towards the younger lot.

It’s like The Vault in a pub down here. The younguns aren’t wise enough to realise that The Vault is the best part of the pub.
