Vintage "Embassy Vouchers" certificate with a blue and white design. The text reads "FIVE Embassy Vouchers" above a slogan, "Embassy - The Best in Smoking" and a mailing address for an "Embassy Catalogue" from W.D. & H.O. Wills in Glasgow. A large number "5" is in a decorative crest on the left.
A coupon/voucher in each packet. The smoker could collect them and exchange them for goods. I recall that people had to save a lot to get not much. I assume the shopkeeper bought and sold them to their advantage.
I've had a low grade headache across my forehead for a few days. Dr Internet days is a tension headache. I mentioned to Mrs TweekySenior that I still had it this morning to which she replied "Brain tumour".
THEY'RE JUST BANKNOTES FFS! And there probably won't be any in 50 years.
A strange form of idolatry, this.
I use Samsung swipe keyboard, which I prefer but it relies on user accuracy, which I'm not
My dad had one. It simply spontaneously combusted.
Off his feet, not really in control, studs showing, trailing leg scissors through, endangering an opponent so, yes, a red for me. Not much, if any, complaints from our players, which is usually a good indication.
"That's liquid football !!!"
Never put The Big Coat away
My mother is in one of those moods where my visit is going to be mainly me giving her a good listening to.
Decades of use left in that
What Soph said....
Best part of the day, especially in summer. Rarely in bed after 06:15.
LS is good.
If you like stout, then for a very low alcohol this is really good

I have similar opportunities when people talk about Colin Montgomerie and James Milner. I just say I've played against them. I just don't say 'at cricket'. Good cricketer as a kid was Monty.
They're very common where I live, but I don't think I've ever heard them make a sound!
New Zealand. With Crowe, against Greatbatch. Greatbatch was out first ball I bowled to him. When I tell people this, unless pressed for more detail, I don't tell them it was run out. 🙂
Played with or against two in that line up.
You can't expect the officials to see everything that goes on in the box at corners. It's chaos. Inevitably, they are likely to punish what they see.
This really is a cracking chune. Love it.

I wonder if those lads went to Maine Road? I bet they did.
The Variety, Fox's biscuits, and Mungo and Shoddy.
February was our 'Core Training' month, of which one module was cyber-security. No, it's not OK.
R.D.B. Croft if memory serves.
Henders
One of the most exciting players I've ever seen at Valley Parade just happens to live where I do.
Just realised we didn't pay the quiz team's bar tab last night. I shall despatch one of the retired team members to go and be penitent in front of the landlord.

If you're in coach B of the 11:40 Leeds to King's Cross today, then I'm afraid you won't be having the quiet journey you expected. Mrs TweekySenior and 6 other middle-aged friends will be descending in it, and as far as I can tell, at least 5 of them have a 'bottle of fizz'.
Will never not be funny
