Off licences. Many memories of going to a pub and being served pop and crisps (shake the salt sachet ones) from the outdoor hatch.
Outdoor, free public paddling pools.
Hop on, hop off buses.
Going round mates' houses and knocking on doors to see if they would come out to play (and they...

Just concussion and cuts and bruises and a few abrasions and that's it.
I didn't hit her that hard!

Puzzled as to what that was I went and dug out the instructions. Couldn't see anything for the code 97, so still baffled I looked on the internet. The...
My missus was just in the bathroom and water started pouring down the kitchen ceiling below.
I just went upstairs, gently tapped on the bathroom door and quite calmly said that water was coming into the kitchen.
