I thought it was "red hat no drawers"...  rubschin:

That's what my mother said too.

And mine.

Sorry GOS, it must have been different for you in the Raj.

I do remember, when I was in single figures, Mother had a red hat that she wore to "formal" occasions. Now I finally know why it was my Father's favourite  rubschin: I wonder if it was a "signal" to him?
I used to have a handle on life but it broke.

Yes ~ the thought never occured until I was typing the above. I mean, you just don't think that about your Mum do you? Unless you come from Norfolk or the Isle of Wight that is.

Virgin Atlantic cabin crew ad 'is sexist and offensive to women', claim viewers

Today the advertising watchdog dismissed complaints that the TV ad is sexist and offensive to women.
The ASA has decided that there were no grounds for a formal investigation and said that it 'considered that the ad was unlikely to be seen as sexist or derogatory towards women or to cause serious or widespread offence.


The ASA said: 'The general crux of the complaints was that the ad was offensive because it was sexist and presented a stereotypical view of gender roles.'

Oh FFS some people need to get a life -  bet they didn't complain about the Diet Coke ads when a bare chested sex god was wiping down your steamy windows  at 11 o clock   noooo:
