Bloody hell that takes you back dunnit

I think Noggin The Nog was before that. And yes, Ollie was good. He did Clangers also. Amazing the emotions you can express using nothing but a swanee whistle.

It was the frog and Madelaine singing those mouse organ tunes. And yes it's funny what you remember.


I think the things you remember are a sign of who you are

Like you're cross between a little frog on your mandolin and a professor Yaffle

No, Richard Dawkins is Yaffle. The frog's a fair cop though.

I can eat cured pork products just fine but if I just eat plain roast pork I get a stomach ache every time.

In contrast to having a headstabbing pain when diving that squeezed the damnable organ that refuses to equalize, heck of whatever made sinus cavities less reliable...

... All I get is the usual ear pressure in flights.
No headaches or aching whatsoever.


I sort of imagined that's what I'm supposed to experience and cope. Confident I'll go underwater.

But nope. :roll:
I got an unexpected on pain scale of 8 out of 10 acute headache.
Maybe I should bring anti decongestants AND painkillers next time.

My sister used to collect them. Not real live ones, just the ornaments.

It might have been a serious idea for getting out of underpaid work though. I like ideas that subvert authority.

Oh yeah my schooling stopped at 11 and then I went to college and uni in my 30s

But to be fair I blagged most of it because I'm just not the academic type

You make up for it with low cunning though.
