    hi shipmates, Hi john pruden , you were not alone but someone giving away two bob that was a lot? if we had a few pennys giving to us, and it was spent it on bread {cobs} at the local bakery, we had one football {leather} borrowed from a rich boy... was like gold-dust to us, without it nothing to do after school playing football in the park was our only fun...
