    ...walking the YM to school this morning, our route took us past the local Police HQ, the periphery of which is border with some scrubby, shabby gorse type bushes.
    Halfway along the pavement, I spotted something just below the shrubs which brought back memories of the 70s.
    As either Frankie Boyle or Russell Howard (I can't recall which) noted on Mock the Week, it seemed to be in abundance in the 70s/80s, but is rarely, if ever seen these days.

    Hands up who knows what it was I saw....

    (Clue, it wasn't a white dog shit)

    I suspect you may be referring to a jazz mag, dampened by rain and morning dew, nestling temptingly under the hedgerow.

    It was always a thing of beauty, when riding the country lanes in our teens, to stumble upon some fluttering sheets caught in bramble and discovering that it wasn't a copy of Woman's Own but was indeed a wonderous tome displaying a great many pairs of norks and hirsute ladies in poses a-plenty.

    Ahh, the memories.
