  • Oh, this is good. This is very, very good. The memories are flooding back... When I wad a wee lad, my granny would mail me a parcel full of Beanos and Dandys every couple of months. At Christmas I'd get the big Beano annual, along with annuals of 'Oor Wullie' and 'The Broons'. Thanks for the link, jeraboam!
  • I was in the Dennis The Menace and Gnasher club. You got a wallet with a membership card in it, plus a fluffy/scratchy Gnasher badge. Plus secret passwords. I can't tell you them, cos they're secret, obv.
  • Me too kit! Best movement I ever subscribed to.
  • My Nana always had old Beano annuals lying around. I could never work out how there could be two different Dennis the Menaces.
  • I could never work out how there could be two different Dennis the Menaces. Growing up in Canada with the US next door I assumed that Rod Serling had something to do with it. Or maybe the US Dennis had a painting of the UK Dennis in his attic...?
  • The US Dennis is a pussy and needs a good slippering. DING!
