RMweb Gold The Johnster Posted July 13, 2020 RMweb Gold Share Posted July 13, 2020 In Cardiff, we called it ‘getting off at Barry Town’, as in not going all the way, to Barry Island. If you really knew what you were doing, you found a girl that went through the tunnel to Barry Pier! Never got past Grangetown myself... 7 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

After the explaining article, there was an ad with a woman's hand, with a large amount of cream in her palm! Hair shampoo of course, not what your dirty minds were thinking! CEL Shampoo, allegedly for thinning hair - yeah, right. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liverpool Only scousers will understand this though ---- (Edge Hill was a red light district !!) Brit15 Real reason for "getting off at Edge Hill" was it was quicker to get off at Edge Hill and use a taxi or bus rather than wait for the train to be lowered into the station at Lime Street by rope which took a long time. The passengers were asked whether they were getting off or carrying on. Then it become a music hall joke. Nothing nefarious such as red light districts in Edge Hill, it would have been quite well healed at that point as all the ship owners and merchants lived there before they all moved to the suburbs. All the dodgy places were by the docks. Jason 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getting desperate, and I'd promised M'Lady we'd get some supplies. Then we heard that the pub in the next village (five miles away) is reopening, but it is a Fancy Dress event. Someone said we better not drive, let's walk there. So we did, but then we got lost. So we were very hot, tired and thirsty by the time we got there. But it was probably the best lager in the village. Fun fact about that scene. That was real beer as nothing else looked real enough on film. That was the 14th take and John Mills was actually quite drunk. 6 1 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
