As I'm approaching a certain age, I've been wallowing in 'memories'. I just hope that they invoke pleasant memories for those of a similar age. And to you youngsters... don't waste a minute of your life... enjoy, BUT be good to others. I've been watching videos on YouTube of places from my youth that I didn't think still existed, purchased photos of places on eBay that I grew up in and thought I'd never see again. I just hope that our grandkids have the same opportunity in this 'sick' world. I could go on with these clips, but I hope you get the idea. You are not alone.

Those were the days Raffles & some of those days were good, but so many things were not so good back then - especially for women.

Think all of those are on my hard drive in mp3 format, and are definitely the ones I grew up with, already applied for my SP which is due at the end of next month

I remember all of them. *sigh* OK - so I'm old. *shrug*
Oh - and I do clearly remember when I first saw the Italian Job - to say the least, a real cliff hanger ending.

One of my favourite bits of nostalgia is David Neal reading H E Bates. Six 15 minute stories on BBC iPlayer at the moment link

Yes I remember all these and know all the words to those were the days. Of course from the Opportunity Knocks and Hughie Green
And this WILL take you back

Me too, still traumatised by being made to watch Hughie Green on Opportunity Knocks when I was a kid. Went to a place called Sukhothai in Thailand about 4 years ago, sitting on the porch of my little guest house cabin with a beer listening to someone play Hotel California REALLY LOUD over and over again at the same time every evening. Ahh, the good old days... I went to see the Eagles live in 1974 when they were touring with Neil Young... (Just an old hippie, really).
