Tesco, somewhere in the late 60s.

 

Coca Cola 4p a can

Cornflakes 7 1/2p

Mars Bar 3p each or three for 7 1/2p

Bounty 2p each or five for 7 1/2p

Kit Kat 1 1/4p each or six for 7p

After Eights 17 1/2p

Baked Beans 5p

 

I’ll have 50 Mar Bars, 100 Kit Kats, 100 cans of Coke, 20 boxes of After Eights, but you can poke your beans up your bum, even at 5p a tin!

Get on the After Eights there. Proper high end.

A couple of the comics I remember buying as a kid. I did have nearly a complete set of Warlords after I bought a load at a church fair- some kid was selling them at 10 for 5 pence. Fuck knows what happened to them all, probably got rid of them to make space for Club International and Men Only.

My mum and dad were always a bit dubious about Bullet, as it was quite violent for the time.

I vaguely remember Roy was going through marriage trouble at the time, and he had twins (I think). My favourite was the millionaire who bought his favourite club and put himself in the team.

'Soccer' on the front page of Roy of the Rovers? Roy Race is dead to me.

Have you been watching Scum recently? Great scene that one.

I’ve not mate.

 

One of my dogs caught me in the knackers yesterday while trampling over me on the sofa, and it made me spontaneously remember the phrase.

 

Like an excruciating furry time capsule.
