    If kids of today found a copy of Razzle, in a hedge, they'd throw it back in..... Whether the pages were stuck together, or not!! 
  • Your first bank account was with the Westminster Bank, your second was with the Midland Bank and your third was with Lloyds Bank. And then they became Lloyds TSB. And then they became Lloyds Bank again.

    Hopefully they would put it in the recycling bin afterwards.

    You realise that you had your bank account for over 53 years with Lloyds in all its forms. Buggers didn’t send me a 50th anniversary card.
  • Getting up before 5 on Saturday morning to take the dog out before heading off to Wigan, at least a gallon of Guinness getting home just before midnight. Having 4 hours sleep and then having to crash about 8pm last night.

    That cold Wigan pie you lifted from the press room probably had an effect as well!! 🤢😂😂
  • When you feel the groin tighten while you’re painting the skirting board.

    I suppose if you ended on the floor it could be a matt finish.
  • Lids on jars were never so tight.

    Is that a euphemism? 
  • Walking down Roupell Street on my way to Waterloo and somebody has got a coal fire going  in one of those terraced houses (you’ve probably seen them even if you haven’t been down there because there’s filming going on from time to time for period dramas) and it stinks and I wondered how bad it must have been when we were kids, especially before they brought in the clean air act, when ever house had a coal fire.

    And of course you know you’re getting old when you start to think of the times you’d collect chestnuts from Greenwich park as a kid and then roast them on the open coal fire at home

    Buggers theres plenty of years left in this body.
  • When a legendary mate, who I haven't seen for 30+ years suddenly gets in touch through Charlton Life!!!

    Is it Finchy ?
    He can throw a shoe over a roof.
  • When the first thing you do when you get up in the morning/come into the house is get your slippers.
  • When you start wearing your running trainers with office attire for the commute, I swore I’d never do this when I was younger but my word it’s comfy.
    Why don't you just buy comfy office shoes?

    Fair point.

    And the honest answer is I’m a bit of a poser who’d rather wear a decent pair of loafers around the office that slowly butcher your feet than a comfy pair from the likes of next or river island.  At least on the commute I go in early enough that hardly anyone sees me.  So short answer, I’m an idiot.
  • You can think of a worse Charlton side than the current one.
