  4. There was a programme on recently about Les Dawson. Fantastic comedian. His mother-in-law jokes were out of this world. Then someone told him they were not pc and he had to stop them but he said mother-in-laws were his greatest fans and loved them and were always asking for more jokes. He was also a great actor. The Roly Polys were ok, I laughed this morning during our slow start to the day.

  6. I wish I could tap dance like tap. Maybe when I'm 90 . . . On a side note, that big screen that comes down scares the daylights out of me.

  7. And I thought you were going to talk about the bug Roly Polys. When I was a bratty child, I used to get the large ones and break them in half. Teeny white things were squirming around inside. Don't know if they were babies or not. I think they are also called Sow Bugs. No, I didn't grow up to be a serial killer.

  9. Just the thing to raise a laugh Cro - British humour at it's best ! Wonderful comedian - I just had to see him sit at a piano and I started to laugh - what faces he could pull ! Watched the Shirley Bassey skit too - hilarious.
    Someone once said that to play like he did, you actually needed to be a very good "straight" pianist.

  10. Well, I've heard references to Les Dawson for years, but had never before actually seen any performances. I thank you for allowing me to see the Roly-Polys vintage tapping while having a very late breakfast earlier today. Now I do get it.

    Thank you for sending this fun across the pond.

    Best wishes.
