old tv programmes

what crap did you have to sit and watch growing up and had to sit silent as your parents watched




upstairs and bloody downstairs :dunno:

Trooping the bloody colour, not a soap I know, but seemed to come round more than once a year! My dad used to watch the whole thing and could I say a word whilst it was on? NO!

Watching paint dry was far more appealing, only trouble was I soon ran out of paint!!!

can't really remember, my mam worked in the pub so she was never in - dad was always fishing :dunno: most of the time he dragged me with him

Oh yes we had to sit through the trooping of the colour too. was that where they used to take the big guns apart and lift them over obstacles? or was that something else. Lol
We also used to have to watch a load of cowboy films. I always wanted the Indians to win. :shock:
