Not as memorable, I agree. Thanks for sharing the photo! Sid's Snake, brilliant!

They must have a acquired some value as a collectable item. I'm sure you wouldn't want to sell them though.

I used to get Whizzer and Chips too, but unlike the The Beano and Dandy I can't remember the characters in it!

I acquired a few brand new unread Beano and Dandy annuals free, over twenty years ago. I stashed them on top of a wardrobe, well wrapped up, and planned to sell them one day. Time passed, and we had a Son, and three years later another Son! The Beano and Dandy Annuals remained at the top of the wardrobe, and one day I just thought about how much our children were old enough to love them, so I took them downstairs and gave them to our boys. Our eldest loved them instantly, not one off wonder, they were read over and over, and eventually by our youngest son too. They've traveled many miles with us, and our eldest son still has them. Probably stacked on the top of his wardrobe!

Is the service charge mandatory? If not, is it common to get the service charge?

What's that service charge all about?

Ah, I didn't know. I was aware of the programme but hardly ever watched it. I have an aversion to anything 'historical' and just won't watch, even if it's funny. I think I might have watched some in a later period when they were in the trenches in the first world war but it's so long ago...

I really hope so...

😂 That reminds me of something I read years ago about prince charles. He had a servant who would come with a chamber pot and stand holding it (presumably with eyes averted) while prince charles had his pee. Not suggesting that the servant held anything other than the pot.

I've sat for as long as I can remember. It's not that I can't aim right but... anyway I don't want to be wiping the toilet seat after every pee! Interesting that article posted by Ms Macbeth, sitting to pee is more healthy for the prostate.

Makes sense now that you put it in perspective. Thanks!

Someone's got to ask... (unless I'm the only one who doesn't know..) What's a Kings pee?

Interesting device. There's been stuff in the news lately about men getting fined for peeing outdoors at the side of dual carriageways. It's a "littering" offence lol. Seems that the women have a 'no fine' advantage on us so long as they take it away and dispose of responsibly! 😁

I'm glad you had a long and happy marriage, and I'm so sorry for your loss. Thank you for sharing. 💜

That's really interesting, thanks for sharing! 👍
