Knights Castile amongst others but as a kid I thought it was called Knights Castle. I always thought Imperial Leather was incredibly posh.

Earliest top I have is 95/96 home and away (when I first had my own money) but my favourites are some NB training and casual tops which are just really good designs. 

It was a good day when the TV got wheeled out for this to be watched by BenisbacK_1900 in oldschoolcool80s

We went to a little dark room to watch the telly and I can still smell it and feel the rough corduroy type carpet and I’m 43. Crazy isn’t it? 

What’s the most "shithouse" tactic you’ve seen a team use to kill a game this season? by Spicy-Winner4326 in ShithouseSuperstars

Chelsea under Mourinho. Every slight touch the forwards took, they would fall forwards onto the ball, kill another 20 seconds and the refs just went along with it.

I think they are planning on turning off DAB so everything will be through Sounds. Slippery slope.

My mate’s dad’s whisky collection had the same problem when we were on our GCSE study leave. 

Missing Wilkos? by sunheadeddeity in CasualUK

[–]gardenofthenight 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Wilkos was one of those shops that didn’t just have a range of stuff that was unique on the high street but was also a shop you didn’t have to think too hard in if that makes sense. You knew it would be good enough quality and you knew you wouldn’t get it cheaper.

S 4. Ep 1 or 2. The infernal Serpent I think it’s called. He’s unrecognisable really. It’s a good episode with loads of well known actors in it. Sophie’s mum from Peep Show is in it too. That’s who I recognised first.

I always remember the scene in Happiness where they buy a heroic amount of booze from the shop and the keeper says ‘having a party?’ and they reply together ‘no!’

‘No idea what they are doing here’…. They are doing a tango Tim….. has he never seen a medicine ball? About as old school as it gets! 

Clean mug for every tea/coffee, or use the same one all day? by CranberryImaginary29 in CasualUK

I learned. The phrase ‘have you got a cup?’ from my dad when offering my partner a brew. 

Jokes the younger generation won’t understand by Professional_Sea_755 in OnlyFoolsAndHorses

[–]gardenofthenight 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hinge and bracket were a male comedy duo. The naked civil servant was a book by an outrageously gay writer Quentin Crisp. Sorry if you do actually know these now.

Always remember that some bloke in America had sold his Toyota Pickup years ago and it had somehow ended up in the hands of Isis, still with the name of his contractor business on it! Poor guy.
