Strange to remember that, eh? But I do.

Thank you for providing such a detailed, personal and lovely reply, providing an insight into an early period in your life Smiles. I can see that I am not the only member to have ‘liked’ it.
My maternal grandfather ran off with another woman and took the sons (but not the daughters) with him. Subsequently he decided he was bored by the older son, packed him off to some residential course and moved house (no forwarding address) while the son (aged 14) was away
When I used to visit Phuket I would use the prepaid taxi at the airport to go to Patong. The fare was 600 bt and I usually paid with 1000bt note and every time I received 300 bt change with my receipt. I had been forewarned of this scam and would just stand there with my hand held out and would receive the other 100bt without even a glance at me. This was before I discovered meter taxis were available.

I hesitate to comment on "fashion" as I'd wear a bin bag if it was comfortable - but I cannot see how wearing that sort of "fashion" clothing with the result that the wind is whistling up your Kyber Pass in the depths of winter can even fulfil that criterion.
Young 'uns eh - who'd have 'em?
Who'd have 'em? Most of us, I think, SG
