Well you got me wondering whatever happened to my pompom hat, scarf and rattle that I had from circa 1963...
Some bustard in my family clearly ladles em quietly in the bin after I left home...
Though I had been banned from taking the rattle to Millmoor from about 65... we had seats in the stand and them around us hated it. Literally came to a head when the top flew off and banjaxed an old gimmer two rows in front...
I'm a gimmer myself now so I'll pose another question: when and why did rattles die out???
