DO YOU REMEMBER THESE?

Do you remember, if you were a member, they would salute you as you passed.
This defiantly looks like the lay-by at the bottom of Wrotham Hill.

Who remembers when they never saluted, they were warning you that there was a Radar Police Trap further along the road.

Who remembers catching the paper alight.

Remember toasting your bread like this. So much more fun than the pop-up toaster.

It’s a long time ago and I was only young, mid to late 1940s, but I think my mum made this.
If I remember right it was wrapped in a tea towel or cloth and boiled in a pot filled with water.
Can anyone else remember this or have I got this completely wrong.

Remember these, we had one like this at the Bricklayers Arms Rail Depot. We had 3 minutes grace, if you clocked on a minute after that then you had 15 minutes pay docked, c1960.

I had one of these when I was about fourteen, use to fire them at the Rats running around in Guinness Buildings, Pages Walk. Kept this for over forty odd years, till someone nick it out of my garage in Kent. The sad thing is it must have been someone that I knew, so much for friends.

This was called a Gatt gun.

We used to put the round one’s in the Gas Meter in Guinness’s Buildings, Pages Walk when we had no money.
