I have not seen a Silverfish since i was knee high to a Grasshopper. Silverfish are wingless insects and are silvery to brown in color because their bodies are covered in tiny scales. Known as Household pests, Siverfish would basically eat your house and its contents if not kept under control!!!!

Hi Suzie. I think the name of the polish that you are trying to think of is called "Mansion Polish" it came in a couple of smells and colours.

2 Black Jacks and a Fruit Salad is your reward!
Feel very ashamed Beverley .......... you sooo didnt deserve a suck on my Gobstopper!
I remember the Jubbly Bob..........."The Ice Lolly" with no stick!
The waxy pyramid shaped packaging was almost impossible to open without the loss of a tooth!

Am a bit reluctant to have a suck of that Gobstopper, especialy after it's been where you say you have been putting it, and more so after watching Channel 4 for the last four nights at 9 o'clock. All sorts of things have been winking at me in my sleep. !!!!!!!!!!! F !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Might that just be "Tiddleywinks" winking at you in your sleep Fred? Taking into consideration how you men refer to the "Common Cold" as "Flu" ?

Was on holiday with my dad last week and was asking him about when he was younger. I asked if his family had a car and a telephone when he was younger to which he repiled yes to both he then said we also had hot and cold running water in the house as if offended by the question. I know he wasn't born in the stone age but when he was growing up in 50s and 60s I did think that not every family had a car or a telephone. Am I correct in thinking this? I was born in 1984.
