Shame how Basildon went, when I was a kid it was buzzing, market always packed on a Saturday, Eastgate full then it just went down hill. Lakeside is going the same way from what I hear ? I suppose it will all end up more housing for 8 million spades Quote Link to post Share on other sites

THE STIFFMEISTER 15,752 Posted September 27, 2021 Report Share Posted September 27, 2021 I must be alone in thinking that the rotfs films should be enshrined in British cinematic history as the most quotable uk movie of all time . “mickey, I’m down 10 large , couldn’t con a 12 year old with it , I’m gonna come down there and do you with a blade “ “your off the firm Craig” “Go go go “ “ heroin. Mugs game . I told all the boys to stay well clear “ “ nice bit of kit “ “ packing it on” dialogues amazing hardly a week has gone by in ten years with out a weekly voice note of my pal dong his best pat tate impression Quote Link to post Share on other sites
