We used to tune into the Colonial Service on Sunday lunchtime to listen to Billy and Wally's "Hold Your Plums." I heard the first one live:
Sadly, I couldn't find Borussia Munchengladbach or the three men sent into the fiery furnace. perhaps next time.
Did you try hard enough? Borussia Munchengladbach is the funniest I remember.
ReplyDeleteShe's strugglin, Bill.
Billy and Wally's? Too funny. Thanks for the into. :):):)
ReplyDeleteDoes the expression "hold your plums" mean something special in Scouse?
ReplyDeleteWell, as ever, you present something of which I have never heard. Very funny, never got this with Tiger Tim on Radio Clyde.
ReplyDelete"Hold your plums" means something special everywhere, Gadj.

I've never heard of this either.
ReplyDeleteWhat does it mean Scarlet? - please tell.
Tiger Tim is the biggest plum on Radio Clyde.
ReplyDeleteClarissa: I tried ever so hard. They even gave me a clue.
ReplyDeleteGlad you enjoyed it Willow
Gadjo: ooh, you don't think there may be a second meaning do you?
Mme DF: now it's my turn to be confused: wasn't Tiger Tim in The Rainbow with Mrs. Bruin and the boys?
Scarlet: you'll have to do your mime now
Lulu: watch Scarlet, she'll be doing the mime for it
Jimmy: I'm going to have to go hunting this character...
