There was a Girl's Crystal as well. I had that at one time but Fred used to have the Eagle and that was a much better read.

Actually, my husband's best friend at school was Plug. Honest. Poor bloke looked just like the lad in The Bash Street kids. M

Am I right in thinking that it used to be Bunty and Diana comics. Then Diana became Princess Diana then went on to be just Princess.

Or am I imagining it ????

I know I used to have both, Bunty with the dress the doll on the back and Princess was a glossier comic and bigger I seem to remember.

Or I might be making that up too. M :-S

What was the gift? I must have had it.

I've still got the free gift from the first issue of Princess.
I don't have the comic(??) though - shame as the two together might be worth a couple of quid.

Never read Bunty but I did have Princess from the time it first came out. Don't know why because I didn't like it. I think they were still making the effort then!

Janet and John caused me great confusion.

Well, I grew up in Tomato Land. We were surrounded by glass here, LSA estates.

In one of the books I read that Janet and John lived in a green house. What? Everybody could see in at what they were doing and it would be very hot in the summer.

Tan me hide when I'm dead, Fred,
tan me hide when I'm dead.
So we tanned his hide when he died Clyde,
And that's it hanging on the shed.

There are known knowns. These are things we know that we know. There are known unknowns. That is to say, there are things that we know we don't know. But there are also unknown unknowns. There are things we don't know we don't know.

There are more questions than answers
Pictures in my mind that will not show
There are more questions than answers
And the more I find out the less I know
Yeah, the more I find out the less I know.

did you miss out the Tricorn hat?

Sharron Report 25 Oct 2013 08:46

It will be in the form of a big cup with a square label stuck on it at an angle and there will be 1st written on the label.

I expect the mayor will present it to me and he will be wearing a huge chain and a pair of shoes that turn up a bit at the end and have a square buckle on them.
