mary1947 1,911 Posted October 18, 2021 Report Share Posted October 18, 2021 Locarno Must have missed you Ben, Tues night at Locarno it used to cost 1/3 coke tanner 6d and i think it shut at 9 30. Girls you mention the net under skirts, in between mini's and pencil skirts, under skirts were made of paper nylon then net was used as full short skirts were in fashion , it took about3yds of net to make an under skirt. the skirt was made in 6inch layer's when joined on to the next layer it was gathed. So the more gather's the fuller the skirt. ( Locarno ) Old Vic This man who was on the balcony in the old vic was thowing peanuts at a lady who was below, trying very hard to get one down her cleavage. Who was that man? The couple married in 1936 and were together for 60+ years. No it was not the Lone Ranger It was my dad. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cliff Ton 10,009 Posted October 23, 2021 Report Share Posted October 23, 2021 I just checked that Bridget Bardot is still around - and she is, age 87. So dancing is obviously good for longevity. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Jill Sparrow 9,677 Posted October 23, 2021 Report Share Posted October 23, 2021 I think he had other proclivities! From a ballet dancer's point of view, however, he was as good as they get. Fantastic balance and strength. We won't see his like again. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

PeverilPeril 3,176 Posted October 29, 2021 Report Share Posted October 29, 2021 Interesting snippet on Breakfast TV this morning about the deaf contestant in Strictly come dancing. So, if he were a Nottingham person how would he use sign language to ask for a dance? How would he sign "Dance Duck"? Mind you he looks of Italian stock and as we know 'everyone' in Italy talks with their hands. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jill Sparrow 9,677 Posted October 29, 2021 Report Share Posted October 29, 2021 The males pinch ladies' bottoms with them, too, PP. I got so sick of that when on holiday in Italy that I returned the compliment and grabbed a handful. Never seen anyone look so shocked! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
