The sad thing is when I look at that photo and count how many are no longer with us.

All the kids were all slim in those days. Most sweets we got was a threepenny lucky bag with a sherbert dip, a few fruit salads and a couple of flying saucers in them! No Mcdonalds or curries, or chinese or pizzas, the only fast food was fish and chips on a Friday night. And kids played out fromm dawn to dusk almost every day. No zombie like sitting in front of a computer screem or smartphone Mad

Aww those were good days to grow up weren't they? Very Happy

Most of my food came from fresh meat from the butchers and almost everything else out of the garden.

No 24 hour TV or computers like you say H home from school, homework then out and the 6 weeks holidays, never at home.

Sunday evening and radio Luxemburg for the top 20 was an transistor radio and a group of us going for a long, long walk listening to it.
