Mucky pup, you need one of those little hand showers just to wash the grime away.

Re: Tide Marks - Yuk
 

Remember telling kids that when i was younger we'd never had a shower and they just couldn't believe it. Then i told them that when we did get a shower in the late 70s we had to wash with soap, never had shower gel. They couldn't believe it. Carbolic soap, wonder what has happened to that and if you can still buy it.

o strewth we used to have the red carbolic block ....then we started buying cammay ,,,,,,,can anyone remember that one .

Re: Tide Marks - Yuk
 

Me! Me! and fairy Green soap in a box of two, big green blocks, or was that just that I had little hands. I remember Cammay too......

Re: Tide Marks - Yuk
 

When we went on to posh soap.
My Nanna used to use cammay and Mum used to use Lifebouy.
If we didn't have a propper wash when we were kids.
Then we would be threatned with the vim nt scrubbing brush.

During a stint in Blackpool my nan made me have a bath with a box of Tide, I was still picking bits of Bluey-white grains out of my bits and bobs long after the rash had disappeared............I kid you not.
