@BookwormBean @Alichat66 @PulpLibrarian @rose1_scarlett @Hamblespin15 @Casserly_Rock @PulpLibrarian Don’t suppose you have any further information on other article in that old paper?

In the '60s you didn't need to complete a CAPTCHA, or click on all the squares containing cars. A simple denial would suffice.

@dm6013 I think white sofas will be out of fashion by then. We'll probably sit on holograms.

@PulpLibrarian 2525

Zager and Evans, predicting IKEA in the year 2025...

Still a prophetic song...

@ChaseGarland3 Indeed it is!

@PulpLibrarian Is the cover art using that same infrared film the first Black Sabbath album's cover used?

Donovan: Wear Your Love Like Heaven. Epic Records, 1967. Sleeve photography by Karl Ferris.

I never expected to hear Donovan in Goodfellas, but what's right is right.

Here's the track: youtu.be/ecO89ad66as?si…

@PulpLibrarian When I was a kid in the 60s & 70s my mom would do this usually on cold mornings. I liked it. Always liked warm milk & somehow over the flakes combined w the sweetness of sugar it was comforting.

I'm determined to make more people listen to Donovan...

Donovan doing a CAPTCHA: "First there is a mountain, then there is no mountain, then there is..."

"They see me rolling..."

It's May the Fourth again...

@PoliceGazette I think the idea was you buttered it like a wheat cracker and ate it on the way to school.

@PulpLibrarian I ate lots of Weetabix when I was a kid living in England. Never used butter, but I'd consider warm milk.

Would you eat Corn Flakes with hot milk, like they did in 1939? I honestly am not sure...

And I'm still angry they changed the recipe for Special K. it used to be delicious!

I draw the line at putting butter on Weetabix, though I know some people claim to enjoy it!

@NewYearNewRoss I imagine it ends up like congealed porridge.

@PulpLibrarian Yes, I used to do this as a child. It was disgusting.

@RichardRis44011 There's a long standing argument about that typeface. Was it Eminence, Daisy Rimmed Fancy, Harper Rimmed, Abbey Scroll or Manuscript Capitals? I go with Eminence, but other views are available!

@PulpLibrarian The same font used as on Black Sabbath's debut album!

Sing A Song Of Play School. BBC Records & Tapes, 1975.
