Yay! Happy Christmas to all you wonderful Copenistas from Neville and Jules. Thanks for helping to make Copening such fun!!!
Congratulations DaG!!! You've made the magic 1000 and on Christmas Day! How cool is that? Hope you've got a big, big, dirty carpet ready for your next post!
For those of you too young to understand the reference to 1001 I appeal to the, ahem, more senior members to reveal the secret.....if they can still remember that far back
Yes, as the song In the advert went....... "1001 cleans a big big carpet, for less than half a crown, for less than half a crown." Whatever half a crown is.
DaG you truly are a guru! For our younger readers, I should point out, in the interest of historical accuracy, that "half a crown" was equivalent to 3 and a quarter groats or 12 Welsh doubloons (except on Sundays of course)
For half a crown you only got a small glass bottles worth. For 5 shillings the economy size plastic bottle could be purchased (For our younger listeners 5 shillings is five bob in metric) Ned https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A3wacuIsdug
