Would you remember? I have vague memories of when I was 11. But in between I remember things when I was younger as well. Don't know how accurate they are

We did not have electricity or even running water, used a well for water . I was about 9 when we got electricity and tv in 1956.

I do remember when I was about 6, we would go to see my grandparents, granddad had a business selling wood. I didn't particularly like going there cause granddad had a rooster in this woodyard. I don't know if anyone else was effected,or only me. But every time I went into the yard there this rooster took one look at me and came after me. I would run screaming for granddad to help me. He always stood there laughing his head off. My brothers were never chased. Only me. Rotten little thing. No to me it wasn't little it was a giant of a bird.

Yeah, at that time we had scary toilets you were afraid you'd fall in the pan, all that smelly phenyle and the nightman used to come and swap over barrels,pans or whatever you want to call them. Always afraid of the Redback spiders too

My youngest daughter said something that l won't let her forget. The conversation went like this:- Daughter:- 'You don't fart do you Dad?'
Me:- 'No darling'.
Daughter:- 'No. You just pass wind'.

What could l say?

Hi there, "BeautifulMousey", we called, & the "Dunny Truck" was known as a "HUMDINGER". In the latter 40's, as a 4yr old, it amazed me how the driver would lift the full pan up on his shoulders & not spill a drop.

I can still smell the "SWEETNESS" of the replacement pan in the Little House out the back.

Can anyone recall how that name came about ? My old grey matter is still pondering that "?".

There is an expert in every field. That's wot I reckon.

U were very lucky to get a tv in '56. It wasn't till abt '58 b4 we had one. I can't remember which brand it was.

GORGEOUS GEORGE with his long golden blond flowing hair was my favourite American wrestler on the old box.

It's funny, the old saying, "The Rooster Rules The Roost", &, in many cases, the back yard as well.

Was the rooster, the same breed as the cartoon one, "Foghorn Leghorn" ? He was also a "fave' of mine.

Hi there, again, "BeautifuMousey", I forgot to mention that I bought a tie emblossomed with good old Foghorn on it & which I used to wear to work with comments from my work mates. I still have it hanging up.

I don't know what type of rooster it was. Just big angry and fast

Yeah with all us kids the pan was full. I don't know how in hell he lifted the pan on his shoulder without spilling anything on himself. That was the sweet smell of phenyle.
