Ya cashy stockings and suspenders, remember the thick bit at the top, the giggle band, got passed there and you were laughing

Saw it 56/57 at The Palace Cinema, Great Harwood, which is now Aquascope. Must say I preferred it as a cinema - much cheaper!

'61/62 was a magic year - traing in Weston -s -Mare, a bicycle town - before tights really came into fashion. Walked into a few lamposts and other obstructions - Happy days

Actually think it was around 67/68 when tights came in

You are correct Jaysay, I was on a post-grad course, back end of '67. Nowhere near the same sights to enjoy.

What a cheapskate - I would throw a "Bob" if she was really a cracker, but had a girlfriend who loved to wear a flared skirt when we went dancing - I had to let the occasional chap dance with her so that I could enjoy the scenery too
