"Ah liked Petuuunia" That sounded like an American Southern accent rather than Lancashire(?) I remember a government information film round about the 80's something about....Clunk Click

Wonderful information films And there's me having spent a couple of hours trying to apply for my state pension on line, giving up and phoning them direct only to find it takes 10 minutes on the phone. Well all sorted now and . . . won £25 on the premium bonds so that's part of my ticket price to a Tull/IA concert next year.

Canadian content: Beware that snow!
One more Arctic desert day - another set of shoes out in the tundra snow. I make my fade to white-out and you can't see where my footprints go.

OK TT thanks for that video about changing to decimal coins. Here's one of our UK versions. I still don't get it.

The police came to our school in about 1968 and showed a little film where a guy taking LSD thought the oven flame was a blue rose and stuck in his hand....they told us if any bad men tried to offer us a certain smokable product that sounded like an elephant sneezing ( Haaa----sheeesh) we should promptly tell parents or teacher.

And of course I hope you did exactly what the nice police said.

I wonder if Granny is single...sorta my type. Actually, when the boy peeked in the keyhole i was hoping he'd catch granny....uh...remembering grandpa. Funny coinky-dink....back in the druggy days, we used to call the unpleasant final hours of a long LSD trip 'counting our change'.....the anxious transition back into the ordinary world that you bravely tore down and looked in the unblinking eye was turning back into bad breath, sweaty clothes, muscle aches, reconsideration of bold statements made mid-trip and general, embarrassed malaise...it came from the grateful Dead lyric: 'you gotta break your chains and count your change and try to walk the line...'

I remember this one well with the Father waving his arms about giving out orders. Love the faces at the end.
