    Surely one of the greatest comedians to have lived. No gimmicks. No shock value. No 'edgy' stuff for the sake of it. Just sheer bloody talent. He was brilliant.

      I was approached, when queuing in a bank, by a young lady. Trying to get me to have a credit card, I said , No thanks, she said, you can buy anything on it and pay monthly, and only pay whatever percent a month, I replied with my voice a little louder, I would rather save up and buy what I want and pay No Interest. She looked at me with a look of incredulity on her face and moved on. One or two in the queue smiled.😀

    One of the greatest comedians/story-tellers from back in the days when people really believed that banks lent money, whereas the amount you wanted to “borrow” was only created after you signed the commitment to pay them the amount; on top of which were fees and compound interest payments, the money for which was never created. This legalised extortion has created massive unpayable debt burdens and social disruption. Would have been great to have Dave Allen’s humour and wit with us today.
