Kwackboy trying to avoid decorating.

As per thread title.
To be happy, I don't need private helicopters,a Florida house or a yacht. I'm fine with my motorcycle,a trip to a forest in Bavaria and some lunch money.

Nice old picture of Tower Bridge.
Those flagpoles won't paint themselves you know (thee nowst) Like a 'button boy' eh?
This doesn't last forever, so do it while you can.

For the benefit of the rest of us.

* Every boy at the school had to climb partway up the mast to qualify. On ceremonial occasions the mast would be manned by a team of boys standing on various parts. The one who stood on the truck at the top was known as a "button boy". *
