You never see a painter using a blow lamp these days. Sean remembers them stripping front doors with a scraper and the flame. Joseph in Portadown says they don't burn paint off any more because of the dangerous fumes. Decorator Dave says his uncle George has retired after a lifetime making chess sets. He got fed up doing knights. Daniel O'Donnell tells great jokes in his stage show. Stretch asks if anyone says 'Woe betide' to children any more. Anne in Belfast says she had a teacher who would say 'Woe betide any girl who comes in tomorrow without her plimsolls or with carelessly done homework'. Sean likes Cliff's new record more and more the more he hears it. There's a plumber called Tommy Pipe because he had the pipes on the top of his van.
