They must've played cartoons way back when you went to the drive-in, Ishy. What did they play?

Yeah, we got a lot of Tom & Jerry, and Warner Bros. stuff, like Daffy Duck vs. Elmer....

However, it wasn't so much that the drive-ins played those...our local cinemas were more into that intermission palaver.

Our drive-ins most of the time just showed 2 features....and local advertising....god i miss my drive-in...boo hoo hoo... Frowner
