| 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!

| 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.
