hold your plums:wasy question about left hand drive

[ravenstar100]

i rememer her! ages later she got on again and they shouted, "OH GOD NO! NOT YOU!"

never thought people could be so daft.

[wxXFrozenflameXxw]

Well, that just reduced my respect for human kind.

[JBofBrisbane]

Let's face it, the Brits don't think of themselves as belonging to Europe.

"It's a one-way street!" ROFLMAO.

[Roserade336]

HAHAHAHAHAHA!

[Rudgey42]

I actually failed.

[MrNodrog1954]

billy should bring this phone in back . what happend to wally scott

[SamTheShamAndTheCat]

i've never had so much fun since the may blitz - hilarious

[BillDFC]

Liverpudlians are naturally hilarious,brilliant people.

[BggProductions]

Funniest radio show ever. Thanks for uploading.

[Seattlecarnut]

(laughs) Hilarious! England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland.

[focking42]

Never been abroad lol! ROLF...Gosh. It's been yonks I haven't laughed this much

[twiki2099]

i love the bit about two sets of buttons lmao

or where she goes off on maddie he's out there washing his car lmao

[Coonshake]

The U.K., Ireland, and Cyprus.

Easy.

[coloserik]

and cyprus

[Fosterscloseclan]

omg how can you be this stupid?!?! LMAO SOOO FUNNY!

[andrewclarke3]

I used to listen to this prog. when i lived in Towyn. Is it still broadcast. Great show.

[Raychlitchfield]

LOL I love the Liverpudlians, they are the funniest folk alive!

[cavern65]

first class!!!!

[pippetpoppet]

Billy Butler should be knighted. SIR Billy! He has made Merseyside smile!

[Medeasbiggestfan]

There are two countries, the UK and Republic of Ireland.

[mpkennedy08]

wtf . uk drives on the right. dum dum

[Medeasbiggestfan]

In the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland they drive on the left-hand-side of the road.

[mpkennedy08]

ya i know, but the driver is sitting on the Right. Right hand Drive . Correct ?

[Medeasbiggestfan]

That is correct, but I never said they didn't.

[Coonshake]

No, that's wrong.

If the driver is driving on the left side of the road, and the steering wheel is on the right side, it's left hand drive.

If the driver is driving on the right side, and the steering wheel is on the left side, it's right hand drive.

You see now?

[Flutician91]

nice try guys...

UK, ROI and Cyprus drive on the left, and use Right hand drive cars.

Try typing 'Right hand drive' into google images and see which side the steering wheel is on. (this works for left or right!)

[gmt921]

@Flutician91 Malta, too

[Flutician91]

@gmt921 Thanks!

[jamiefrew]

@Coonshake Thats right hand traffic your thinking of, British cars where we drive on the left are Right Hand Drive.

[GladRaggerz]

Hah! What I wouldn't do to have these two back every Sunday!

[Blabloo72]

I agree 100% - too funny! 'Me roasties are burnin' !!!!!!!" too funny for words!

[GladRaggerz]

I know - hilarious! Not to mention 'I've never 'ad so much fun since the May Blitz (!)'. Sounds just like something my late Grandma might have said, bless her!

[elviracoh]

if your ever feeling sad, this has to be the show to pick you up off the floor, absoluely the best.

[jamesjeffreypaul]

Priceless!

[tommyfromkiel]

...i love this! Just can´t stop laughing! :o))

Regards from "right hand driving" Germany

[JayDancinDoodette]

"Me roasties will burn!" hahaha this is bloody hilarious!

[kayepnuts]

Don't know the theme tune but I have bought 3 series of Hold Your Plums on CD from BBC Merseyside. Just ring and order them by post. Thye're really inexpensive for the hours of enjoyment you get out of them. All the favourites are on there... brilliant!

[wilson68uk]

Doe's anyone know what the theme music was called on Hold Your Plums, okay not sure if it was the offical theme but it was a catchy tune with no words but was similar to the Captain Pugwash tune, a sea shanty type tune. Thanks

[robbiedarza]

I have got about 50 episodes of this show on audio cassetes. i would post some of them but i dont know how to convert audio tapes to mp3 . i tried but it was really quiet .

[adeworks]

I'm sure it's possible. Pleeeease find out!

[SassyBloo]

This is what I miss sooooo much about Liverpool. Put on the witch's shoes: There's no place like home. There's no place like home. There's no place...

[LordGuinness]

@SassyBloo

reading that made me cry, I know what you mean x

[Grinthreyhound]

There are actually 4 countries, United Kingdom, Republic of Ireland, Malta and Cyprus.

[ME04073]

the gear shift , clutch , brake , and gas is the same

[creamyfilling102]

here's a question for any brits out there (or aussies or anyone else that drives on left). since ur on the other side of the car and shift with your left hand, is the shift pattern reversed from that of a right drive car? would first gear be to the left and up?

[petem1989]

The gear pattern is identical: first gear is left (away from you) and forwards. The pedals are still CBA. Imagine a left hand drive car with the steering wheel and pedal box moved over to the right

[escortRS1600i]

LOL, wonderful, I love Billy and Wally.

I don't suppose you have the ones of Terry "van of bulls" the "sucker manager" or my favourite with Eilean from St Helens and her lad Geoffrey trying to guess "puff the magic dragon".......priceless

[twiki2099]

the toruble user has been blocked from conntacting my videos

[tedmagnum]

You can't beat scouse humour and "piss taking" ! :)

[robertroyfellows]

this is as funny as a funeral. this stupid woman is surely putting this on. scousers are just stupid, and not funny.

[tedmagnum]

Go say that in Liverpool and see how funny your funeral will be.. idiot !

[matthew2069]

[gghutube]
