Ashton buses used to have 'Spitting Prohibited' written in the upper saloon.

I always used to think 'Dirty bastards, who spits inside a bus?'

Anyway, not seen that sign for a long, long time. No one must spit anymore.

Or maybe they just swallow

One of our teachers used to wear a mustard yellow jacket. Lads used to flick ink up his back as he walked up and down the rows. He eventually had the jacket dyed blue, but he wasn't happy about it.

Now you can't do that with a Biro!

You should have switched to yellow ink.

You should have switched to yellow ink.

Football rattles.
Bus conductors.
Snogging in the back row of the cinema.

(In one's youth you could experience all three in an afternoon, Maine Rd., 42 bus into town, the Gaumont.)

Now there's a coincidence. Exactly the same thing happened to one of my teachers with his mustard yellow corduroy jacket he eventually dyed blue. Unless it's the same one. Which school did you go to?

We did the same with one of our teachers - he wore a WHITE suit!
