Lisa Tarbuck was on the radio last night when I was taking Mrs Ozziedog out to be fed and watered in Bath. She was saying on the radio about the things that adults told us as kids that turned out to be nothing but lies and some of them had me crying, any one else got any ??
My brother in law told the kids for years that the ice cream van tune that you`ll always hear in the summer was playing because he`d run out of ice cream,,,, now that`s just mean.
On the radio, someone was saying about driving past a factory when they were little and steam was belching out of the chimney / vents and their dad said it was a cloud factory, I smiled at that one :mrgreen:


Ozziedog,,,,,,,,,,,,, Anyone else hear or remember it ??? :mrgreen:
 
we had a cloud factory here near us (Titans/ tioxide) real big fluffy ones !! but when it closed down 3 years ago,my plan was foiled.... how are the clouds made now dad??? er hmmm er ...ooh look at that over there?? :lol:
 
my mom said if you keep playing with that you'll go blind..... i wear glasses now and don't play as much 'cos i have bad wrists.
 
If the Golden arches are lit up then that Mcdonalds store is full and we can't go in. :roll:
 
The big electrical box beside traffic lights is where the people who control the lights sit and work. It has to be a box so they can see the traffic but keep warm and dry. When I asked how people fitted in, I was told that this was what midgets did when they weren't working in pantomimes!!!

What a gullible child I was! :oops:

If they came occational it would be a nice treat for the kids (and me :msn4: )But we get sick and tired of ice cream vans round here, at least 3 times a week, all year round, day or dark nights, they even came round when it was snowing the other week :shock: who wants an ice cream when it's bloody freezing :lol:
 
My Grandad and Nan used to live along the coast near Brighton. So when I was there, we often went to the beach with their dogs to collect winkles and cockles (as he loved those), and he for years told me that when the tide goes out, a Frenchman pulls out a plug, and like wise, when it comes in, the Frenchman put his plug back in and the Englishman pulled out his.

For years he promised to take me to see the Englishman...strangely, we never did
 
The smoke detectors on the ceiling are really cameras put there by the elfs so they can tell Santa if your good or not !!!
