Mods ban this racialist!

I used to collect the golly badges. The first record my mother bought me was a 78 (now that gives away how ancient I am) called "Black Sambo", and I can still remember the lyrics!

I used to have a book called 'Little Black Sambo' and I collected the Golliwog badges with Robertsons jams as well.

My Mum had that book. We didn't have the Robinsons badges, we had these little statue things. Both my brother and I had Golliwogs knitted for us as kids.

Shame the world went a bit mad really.


PS. Be my FB friend

I'm a lover not a fighter

And I used to save the golly badges too

Do you mean Facebook C? I still haven't got my head around it. I have so many requests and not sure what to do or whether to do.

When I was back in UK last year, We went to a hobby/ craft farm. I saw the most beaugtifully made Golly family for sale. Not old but brand new.
The artwork was just beautiful. There was even a grandma sitting in a rocking chair.
I didnt see it for the old connotations people associate with it, just the incredible beauty of them.

I would hope so.

The only other is fat barsteward friend....and I think NB likes you more than that

That makes two of us!

Loving, not the golly thing.

They are lovely N, I agree. An aunt made me a beautiful Golly which was about 18" long, dressed in a waistcoat, bow tie, trousers with braces and Spatz shoes. I think my mum still has it.

Oh well, bar steward is good, as long as I get to drink.

You're far too good looking to be called a FB - even with your viking hat on

It was a St.Georges Day hat.

Jees.....those weetabix have effected my eyes too

Well by the way you've been posting all day, I blame alcohol.

That aswell

Can you freakin see me
