Does anyone still have a woman going round their office with a tea trolley selling biscuits and cakes etc?

We had a tea lady at the last company I worked for. It's the only place I've ever seen it though.
If anybody mentions white dog shit I'll scream. Oops, I just did it. Aaaaarrggghhhhh. That's better.

A milkman. I remember when I was younger seeing loads of them, now nobody has their milk delivered.

Where are the youth of today meant to find post-binge sustenance whilst wandering home at 4am if there's no milk float to loot? The world's gone mad I tells ya!
-
Youth clubs. Elmfield (Emmy) house used to be the 'in place'when I were a lad.....are there any nowadays?

My local convenience store is a class act but fails to stock confectionary from the good people at Bonds.

As Half Man Half Biscuit say:
\"Even men with steel hearts love to see a dog on the pitch
Even men with steel hearts love to see a dog on the pitch
It generates a warmth around the ground that augurs well for mankind
And that’s what life’s about
Trouble is these days you never see a dog on the pitch.\"

Cowhorns on bikes or Lolly sticks in the spokes
Kiss catch, Postmans Knock, you show me yours and I'll show you mine
Sticking a straw up a frogs arse and blowing it up
I could go on.........
