The Beige Allegro
help
Time to reach into your grab bag of 70s nostalgia with a fab new concept in MC. Get from Fingerbobs to Slade without passing blaxploitation or The Winter of Discontent. Punk Scores double but has nothing to do with the Mystery winning move.

more tooth-rot : Imps, Tacks (very similar), rainbow crystals, pink panther bars and those pink waffle-shaped chewy spearmint things between two sheets of greaseproof paper...
[Tooth-rot] Mojos! Cinnamon flavoured tic-tacs, and those Fry's choclate bars with the multi-coloured, multi-flavoured soft fondant centers.
Pink Panther Pink Chocolate Bars (And still available in Norwich as late as 1991, by the way)
Dad's Army & M*A*S*H each lasting longer than the wars they portrayed.
[Puckoon] Because they lasted just one hour a week... :oP
The Liver Birds Ye dancin'? invoked.
Leading to the usual companion move of Butterflies.
Pen] Ya askin'? Mrs Slocombe's Pussy. Donna Summer - feeling Lurveeee. Oooooh!
Green Shield Stamps! Sandwich Toaster, anyone?
In which case, I'll have a Three Day Week.
Darn it, rab, that forces me into a Hard Day's Night - at home, of course, in Abbey Road!
Bzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzt! Hard Day's Night was 1964.

What ever happened to
Marathon Bars
Smiths Crisps
Opal Fruits
Rowntrees Fruit Gums...?
Marathon Bars became 'Snickers' in about 1990
Smiths Crisps are still available
Opal Fruits became Starburst in about 2001
and Rowntrees Fruit Gums are still available

all of which forces me to Shop at a FineFare Supermarket, using a checkout till with mechanical buttons and a totalling button that goes KERRRR-CHINNNNG! and opens the cash drawer (where there is a compartment for half-pence pieces).

Arkwright's till with it's mousetrap like One Pound Note clip, in Open All Hours. [pen] that compartment would have originally been for tanners.
