When I was a kid, the older peoples word for a woman's breasts was "Charlies" Not boobs; not tits; "Charlies". No idea where that came from (kind of rhyming slang?) or whether that word is still used in some places these days.

Yeh, something to do with what they put in the dog food in those days, I assume bone meal. Like most things today we over indulge. Not that I have done much dog crap surveying you understand...
My grandad would kill for green shield stamps... Seems pretty weird now.

Something to do with Charles II who was known for having a lot of Totty

When visiting grandparents in rural County Cork in the late fifties early sixties nobody had a television, and my grandparents had an outside non flushing bucket toilet which was chemicals in a bucket emptied in a pit in the field. Water for all uses was fetched in from a pump in the street, nobody had a phone and the one phone box in the village was operated by turning a handle to get the exchange. Cooking was solid fuel (peat or wood) on a range. Irish potatoes are something else by the way. I was there in 1966 when my grandparents had acquired a huge television set with a tiny black and white screen and we watched the World Cup Final, when West Germany were winning in the first half my grandmother flicked some Holy Water on the television screen and then England scored! Absolute true story.
Jumping off the bus when it was starting to slow down before your stop. Ditto opening the train doors and jumping out on the platform when the train was still going to try to beat the crowds off at Cannon Street.
We used to do the bus jump challenge and I misjudged it a bit once. Was hard to explain my bloody elbows and knees and holes in my blazer and trousers.

White crap….. Can be found in our dogs garden in this weather, manufactured dog food has various preservatives to give it a shelf life, which is what you’ll find after some thoughtless individual has walked their dog two days previously.
After expelling natural food, the fluids needed to do so will evaporate leaving content the dog’s stomach can’t breakdown which when left will dry will return to the soil. I can talk dog sh*te all day and often do, checking your dogs crap will often tell you if the dog has a health issue well before the dog looks poorly. 😉

But with the original number where you mention the exchange venue first.
Houses without phones , no hot water and outside toilets.
some house had no electricity in Charlton but had gas.
Last street lights I believe that run on gas turned off about 1975. Harvey Gardens.

I wonder whether the quizzies had less of a profit margin given there's some skill over the percentage payout on fruit machines?
