I thought Mr Chippendale used bay rum on his hair, not that I know what it is, but it sounds old-fashioned!

We also did those dances at school! I really enjoyed them. In the 80s I did contemporary dance and dance/drama at the BAI with two excellent teachers. When we did the performances, there was one class that did French folk dances.

What a variety of classes! Would National Dancing be English folk dance?

And the sandals in no. 3 - they were still being worn in the 60s and maybe 70s.

I wonder if there are other places with so many underpasses.

I have heard that. I am worried about over feeding or maybe giving her the wrong type of food. Before this one, there was a ginger cat that used to come in to us...perhaps word got around!

It's really interesting, and I also wish the same!

That does sound terrifying.

Fabulous! All those people wearing hats...and the tea urn was a nice touch, very thoughtful. The lifts jogged my memory as well.

I've heard it mentioned by relatives.

Both eccentric characters - must be something about being a chef!

Sandor Eles, who played Paul Ross, turned up in an episode of Upstairs, Downstairs (Desirous of Change, 1973) a couple of days ago. He played an Austrian con man, and wasn't recognisable as he had long hair or more probably was wearing a wig.
