February 6, 201610 yr A thread on another of the boards forums made me start reminiscing about bygone days I wonder how many of you remember the adverts we used to have on TV in the 60s and 70s Oh how watching them now on you tube makes me smile. This was one of my favourites.

Couldn't find it, but found this clip and posted it in error. PS - must try harder.
July 13, 20169 yr FOR Moe19 I used to love this one as well https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yCmhR2JK1VE Dambuster beer advert leaves a bad taste I really do have to curtail the urge to snigger & it only goes to show how little you know about “KRAUT”s”... I still think this one is great “right on the nail”. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LuIJqF8av6I In the advertisement, German holidaymakers look on as the British character sends his towel bouncing across the pool to land neatly on a deckchair - a parody of the Dambusters mission in which bouncing bombs destroyed a huge dam. The inconsiderate GERMAN “KRAUTS” always pride themselves at reserving the best deckchairs, for themselves, they even get up in the middle of the night to do it. This advert really made (makes) them livid. I have been asked many times why are we “BRITISH” so unkind. I find it fantastic. Mind you don’t fall asleep while reading this, you’ve already missed the “Picnic”. May be I should write “PPE” required to read this Post. Contact http://www.hse.gov.uk/guidance/ perhaps they can give you some advice. Crashing out over a “Keyboard” or swallowing a Mouse can seriously damage your health & you end up having or being a “NUMBSKULL”
