Ooh @Fuzzy you are very naughty, am now singing Chitch Chitcy to the stick song (wails)

dontcallmelen · 01/08/2018 10:36

@Babadoc, those sheets sound as though they could be Brentford Nylons rejects.

HonkyWonkWoman · 01/08/2018 10:37

Trinity66 · 01/08/2018 10:43

dontcallmelen · 01/08/2018 10:58

Oh crikey Honky, I’ve lost it now that’s a blast from the past😂😂
You will be ok here, no one ignored on this thread.

FuzzyCustard · 01/08/2018 11:05

Oi Babdoc I saw you on another thread (the anti-religion guff one, I think) and thought what a great deal of lovely sense you spoke. I didn't respond on that because I have vowed to stray away from al contentiousness, but I applaud you.

FuzzyCustard · 01/08/2018 11:06

Was it Alan Freeman who used to advertise Brentford Nylons?

FuzzyCustard · 01/08/2018 12:52

I've killed it, haven't I?

SchadenfreudePersonified · 01/08/2018 13:22

I see you have them patented now! does kirta know about this?

She does now.

I also have them ©-ed. (Took a bit longer to come through as I had to find the correct government department - apparently "copyright" and "copy, write" are two different things - who would have thunk it?)

SchadenfreudePersonified · 01/08/2018 13:26

Does anyone remember the slippers, with mule heel & furry bit across the front topped off with diamanté clip, my dm always wore them they would look rather fetching with our nylon housecoats.

Yes! Yes - I remember those! You could get them with 6" stiletto heels if you wanted! (Ideal for putting the bins out). And pretty much any colour under the sun - those little acrylics - what a fortune they must have made for the fur farmers! They bred like rabbits and came in a huge variety of colours - you never see them in the wild these days. I wonder why not?

You will be hearing from my lawyers, Quick, Grabbit and Runne regarding this flagrant breach of copyright and trademark registration. Unless it is a life-threatening situation (ie MY life is under threat) you cannot use my word willy, or even nilly.

SchadenfreudePersonified · 01/08/2018 13:32

CaptainKirk's - wow - the original advert!

Of course, that was years ago. £1.69 was the equivalent of around £1.93 now.

HonkyWonkWoman · 01/08/2018 13:50

Talking about anti-Religion Fuzzy!
What does everyone think of having Alan Freeman as our Thread cult Leader - Demi-God and muse!

Myimaginarycathasfleas · 01/08/2018 14:17

Aw, you mean “Fluff” Freeman? No longer with us I’m afraid HonkyWonk. He could lead us from Beyond. We couldn’t risk a mass gathering though. All that static. Not to mention chitchiness.

Note modified version of Schaden’s word. Patent pending. I will accept PayPal.

Myimaginarycathasfleas · 01/08/2018 14:29

I have just googled Crimplene for men. My eyes, my eyes...

dontcallmelen · 01/08/2018 16:11

Alan Fluff Freeman has my vote, am getting concerned about all this legal stuff, couldn’t we sort it over a nice babysham(sp) poured into one of the special glasses, that you used to get from your green shield stamps.

dontcallmelen · 01/08/2018 16:17

@Schaden I’m sure my dm had them in fuschia pink & purple.
@Myimaginary now you can see what a tortured childhood I had.
Just thought of another delightful outfit I had, a orange/purple flowery crimplene dress with puff sleeves & a delightful purple bib shape on the front.

Myimaginarycathasfleas · 01/08/2018 16:21

Good idea melen >

Myimaginarycathasfleas · 01/08/2018 16:26

My nightmare outfit was a skinny rib polo neck (Barbie pink) and flower powery trousers which I seem to remember as being a kind of stretchy cord. Might have been stirrup trews. But the main horror was my younger sister being dressed in the identical outfit. The shame...

SadieHH · 01/08/2018 16:47

OK, step aside everyone.

My world beating outfit, worn to school mufti day circa 1986 was...

A black skirt (shiny) with a kick pleat at the back. Shin length.

A buttercup yellow waffle knit jumper with collar.

And to finish the look, white stiletto court shoes.

I thank you.
