Shoddy PresentsI have an aunt who for many years would send me the same christmas present every year. A Biro. Each year I wrote inevitable "Thankyou so much for the Biro. I am using it to write this letter" letter, each year a new one arrived.
Tell us all about the rubbish that has been foisted upon you over the years.

Capt'n FabulousWell, of course, we 'ad it tough! I had to get up at ten o'clock at night, half an hour before I went to bed, drink a cup of sulphuric acid, work 29 hours a day down at the mill and pay the mill owner for permission to come to work, and when we got home, our mother and father would kill us and dance on our graves singing Halleluja.
Aye, and you try telling young people of today that. And they won't believe you.
