Some of the men would go mad if i cleaned the billy cans out. They reckon the stains added to the taste :)

Have you seen the price of Billy Cans nowadays? I couldn't find one for less than a tenner!

The best way to stir the "tay" was to windmill the Billy Can in a big circle, akin to Pete Townsend playing guitar. Watching my owld feller do that when I was about 6 years old gave me a thorough understanding of centrifugal forces.

No, but....

Apparently, 1 in 5 people in the world are Chinese.
There are 5 people in my family, so it must be one of them.
It's either my mum or my Dad, or my older Brother Colin, or my younger Brother Ho-Cha-Chu?
But I think its Colin.

always makes me giggle
