It'doesn't matter if you are 20 to 70, everyone remembers something that isn't here anymore, for me I think it was the "dances" where the lads would all stand at one end looking matcho in their Italian Suits and knitted ties and winkle pickers, the girls with their full skirts and can-can slips, hairbands and whirlpool bras,,,he-he, remember them?
could put your eye out if anyone got too close,,,lol
what isn't there for you now?

I miss getting all togged up for Sunday night at Tiffneys in Ilford Essex. That was the first place I realised not to dance and sing at the same time - the infra blue lights not only showed up if you had a white bra on underneath clothes but also if you had your teeth crowned !!!!!!!! Not a good look - ha ha ha

I have just read your post on your daughter receiving a letter from the local authority about your grandson's weight.
Fu�king unbelievable - 3 ounces overweight !! Can you imagine some poor mum who has suffered from anorexia or similar herself and receiving this type of letter - she could become paranoid about the child. Utterly irresponsible local authorities.
The world has gone maddddddddd !!

Hi Joy and everyone,
I miss lots of things Joy but the thing I miss most is the calmness of the area I live in. There is so much aggression in people these days. I know it sounds cliche but there are so many horrible kids that hang around in gangs here. You feel intimidated by them and you can't even say anything to them without thinking they'll pull a knife out on you.
On a happier note I miss Banjo Bars. They were lovely.

I miss strawberries that tasted sweet and warm and lucious, tomatoes that had real flavour, Jersey Royals that tasted of the soil they had been grown in. Vegetables in season that had flavour and a short season. English apples and pears, quinces and cherries. Birdsong, children playing their singing games in the road. Little or no traffic and smokey steam trains to the sea side. Leaving my back door open when I went shopping and knowing that no one would have robbed me. Bus conductors to take the fare and give out tickets. Brewers drays and the lovely shire horses. Sunny summer days in the park with ice-cream from the 'Stop me and buy one' man on a bicycle with his big icecream carrier on the front. The smell of newly roasted coffee in almost every high street. Real fresh bread. .......... I'll stop now.
I miss wearing my maxi coat over my mini skirt with my knee high black boots and a large brimmed black hat. I used to wear a black chiffon blouse and black waistcoat and no bra, I miss wearing no bra actually, lol When I think about all those skinny rib jumpers I had in rainbow colours and my pink coat with the military collar, i think how great it was then to be colourful and different, now everyone copies that look!
