1966 and all that....
Ah, I now see a fellow recollector (is there such a word?) in Torchwatch.
He is right because I once wore one in that period and as it happens in an old Victorian pool too.
Yes, no good trying to put eyelets into Lycra - it had to be a non-stretch material (which was a sort of satin cotton)
- and that's why I soon hated the awful fit.
I now have to ask him the name of the BBC commentator who uttered
the immortal words of the World Cup victory (was it Kenneth Wolstenholme ?)
