hello
Still hoping for a time machine, mine would be the 70s when "Proper music and venues were still around"
Anybody still remember Disco and getting suited and booted for a Friday night out on the town.

I remember it well great times and great music. I used to go out on a Saturday start off in the pubs in town then a visit to a local night Club till 02:00 am then walk home. The whole night cost me a fiver.

Yep, the 70's.........great music, draught Guinness with Southern Comfort chasers (to take the bitter finish away), telling my yank bosses where to shove their poxy job, and getting on the ferry at Dover.........great times.

Farm by us still sometimes sells eggs on their notice board for 21/6p.. (twenty one and sixpence) that must confuse the hell out of most people younger than 60.

Unfortunately they were also:
A generation that harassed gay people
A generation that tolerated paedophiles in public life
A generation that accepted racism as a part of life
A generation that considered the work of women to be worth less
A generation that never knew its grandparents
A generation that saw cancer as a death sentence
A generation that locked away the disabled
Pretty much every generation has a rosy eyed view of the era they grew up in, even so some things are better left in the past.

It's wrong to generalise.......there were many people of "that generation" who were just as concerned about such issues as some people are today.

21/6p To me that suggests 21 for 6p ... anyone who really remembers pre-decimal would have used "d" for pence.
