Remember your mums divi number

[manxbiker 10]

S&E 82492 Not used 45yrs or more

[Pandora 103 10]

66777

double 6 treble 7 dead easy to remember Oddly enough I can remember my mum's number but can't remember mine. Maybe because they changed to those vile tasting co-op stamp things that you had to stick in the book....1 million stamps = £1 or therabouts.

And remember the yellow milk tokens and Lol the milkman on Wordsworth avenue in the 70's

I have absolutely no idea what you are all talking about. Though it sounds like a prison roll call.

Mum's B & C number was 26945 and my RAF no. 4182112, neither will ever be forgotten, why?, I've no idea.

.... who remembers the plastic milk checks ?

I certainly do, but for the benefit of youngsters who don't remember them, they looked like this..

I went many times for my mum to the B&C Attercliffe and her number was 28387 and funnily enough my wifes birth date is 28-38.

There used to be a small B & C at Wadsley Bridge .... down from the bridge there was Railway pub, side road leading to Carrs & the allotments,then a few cottages after that semi detached house, beeleywood school and after that B & C set back from the road an archway, then a butchers shop, methodist chapel, garage & tyre sales on left hand side going down from bridge

I remember our number and the next door neighbors

They come in handy for passwords sometimes.

I also remember standing inline at the Mount Tabor church to get the dividend
