So it's another year gone.....

[Postdog]

What are your memories from the past that just make you go nostalgic?

Some of mine. The smell of coal in the coal yard by the station.
Actually playing outside with mates.
Helping mum shell peas.
being able to buy bangers and blowing up milk bottles.
Getting a peice of privet and wrapping cobwebs around it.
Scoobie doos and those super bouncy balls Jimmy Saville used to promote.
getting scraps from the chippy.

When our mam could afford a bag of coal .... us 7 young 'uns huddling round the fire, enjoying the warmth. No central heating or tax credits in those days.
