......for less than half a crown !!
That's showing my age. And some on here are too young to know how much half a crown is.

Well done.

It seems I've just joined this illustrious club of 1000 posts of inane drivel.

I would just like to thank Tank for letting me join, my mum and dad etc..........  :D :D :D

I hope I haven't bored you all with my inane drivel over the years and I do hope that I have at least helped someone with something, whatever it may be  ;) ;)

Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah......


Regards

Neal.


P.S. oops that's 1001 now

A very short tenure of the 1000 post club, Neal. Must be a record.

Mystified by the carpet reference.

Also how can I tell how many of my posts are inane, and how many are actually nane? ???

Just to put you youngsters out of your misery, 1001 was a carpet cleaning liquid, sold by, IMMS Bex Bissel. It was priced at just below 2s and 6d. It had an annoying little ditty about cleaning a big, big, carpet for less than half a crown. Amazing what sticks in the memory.

How about Stanley's man?

Eeeek.  I remember that Bex Bissell advert. And me mother had one, too, for better or worse,  bless her cotton socks.  :uneasy:

Time to move on, methinks.

Thanks but if I were you I wouldn't send any locos here for servicing  !
Taking locos apart is definitely not my forte - unless you want them never to run again that is !
