A Self Indulgent Trip Down Memory Lane
The Good Old Days
Remember the Good Old Days?

Do you remember those endless days of Summer, playing football until the sun was long gone, ice creams melting before you could eat them in the scorching heat? And what about those Winters; snow piled so high you could scarcely see out the window?

You remember the good old days, the time when all your neighbours used to say hello in the morning, and whistle on their way to work.

The time when the most important thing in the world was that you managed to convince your mum that an ice-cream was essential, before the van disappeared around the corner. Those bliss filled days of childhood when the world was a much, much better place and there was always something to watch on the telly. You do? Good, because that's what we're all about here at WWWK.

Let us take you on a magical trip back into that special time. Of course, that time was different for all us, so we've covered off a good 60 years here to try and ensure that we've captured the correct "good old days" just for you!

A Good Old Fashioned Sweet Shop
Mint Humbugs Anyone?

Remember starting up with awestruck eyes at the vast array of brightly coloured sweets stacked right up to the ceiling in the days when E numbers were unheard of?

I'm sure we've also all heard about how our parents used to go to the cinema, drink 14 pints and still had enough change out of two bob (whatever a bob was!) for a bag of chips on the way home, so now you can check if they were lying or not with our great cost of living indicator! This neat toy gives you the real cost of living for the year of your choice. Click Here to give it a go.

And what about those fish and chips? The fish were huge, the chips were much better than that rubbish you get nowadays, cooked in real lard, none of that vegetable oil muck!

And don't even get us started on this rubbish they call music nowadays. Remember when music used to sound like music, when songs had a rhythm and you could hear the words.

Ah, those were the days... And here they are again right now. Well, as much as we can drag out about them from our fuddled old brains. Enjoy what you find here and don't forget to share your own special memories in the WWWK forums.
