Say it Again

Eddie shares a few quotes with us:

  • “I don’t have a photograph, but you can have my footprints. They’re upstairs in my socks”. (Groucho Marx from the Film “A Night at the Opera”).
  • “Are you going to come quietly or do I have to use earplugs?” (Spike Milligan from “The Great Mustard and Cress Shortage”).
  • “I used to play football in my youth. Then my eyes went bad. That’s why I became a referee.” (Morecambe and Wise).

So in every competition we hold, we always have one of these.
