In the good old days accyman very few people had cars, there were no computers and mobile phones were a pipe dream, you took your holidays the last two weeks in July usually a week in Blackpool, no fortnight in Spain back then, and everybody knew their neighbours, uncle alan next door and auntie florry across the street, there was a community spirit back then, nowhere to be seen today, no local pubs to speak of very few clubs think there's only one in Ossy now and that's the Ossy Social Club (Con) Ya things have changed and I'm afraid its not for the better
