Why is the woman coming out with all this twaddle? She keeps on saying that the flannel when she was young was made of nylon and you got your toes stuck in it. How in God's name can flannel be made of nylon?
Absolute rubbish!! She is talking about brushed nylon. They were a trend in the 60's. Brentford nylons and market stalls sold them.
We have had flannel for years only in my day they called it flannelette. Candy stripe usually. I grew up with them. I know for a fact that I was sleeping in flannelette sheets in 1960, the week Coronation Street started so there you go.
So if she doesn't shut up talking about BRUSHED NYLON, I swear I will ram her Northern Nights into the Land of the Rising Sun.
