Fish and chips wrapped in newspaper
Pop bottle made of glass
Tuppence refunds if you took them back
Two-bob-bits ready for the meter
Record players
78 and 33 rpm vinyl
And singles
Some with double A sides
The charts countdown on the radio
Every Sunday evening
And the excitement guessing what would be No1
Telephones attached to the wall
The operator and party lines
B&W telly
The test card at midnight
Bob-a-job week
Penny-for-the-guy
Intermissions at the cinema
Usherettes selling tubs of ice-cream
And cigarettes
The Green Cross code
Warm milk at school
Shops being shut on a Sunday
Pubs closing between 3 and 7pm
Pen-pals
Letters and cards through the post
A simpler time
No computers, mobile phones or Internet
When the school summer holidays lasted forever
The sun was always shining
And it snowed on Christmas Day
