The great thing about white dog shit was that you were never short of something to chalk a wicket on a wall.

Spangles, did somebody say ?

Adventure, The Rover, The Wizard, The Hotspur.

Penny chews, and the consequent trip to the dentist to have the filling replaced.

An injection ? Are you a pansy or something ?

The Cisco Kid. Ninepenny comics - Kit Carson, Buck Rogers.

Cap guns, and penny bangers that would blow a milk bottle apart.

Long trousers when you were 15 and not a day before.
