It's being so cheerful as keeps 'em going.
lol long time since I've heard that
ITMA
Not that far back but it was certainly in use when I was growing up
Dear Ophelia, you are clearly not old enough to remember ITMA!
The phrase is *definitely* that far back, and *definitely* ITMA. It was a
catchphrase from Mona Lott, a dressed laundry woman.
Martin has just posted some more from ITMA.
LOL I reckon you would be wrong g I suspect it just wasn't something my
parents listened to
I've heard people use that when I was a child and
obviously that is where they got it from ;p
We didn't listen to much we were always quiet and reading books. The only
thing we listened to regularly was The Good Show! My Dad loved it
