After reading this thread through, I find myself yearning for simpler days without smart phones and computers. Where I used to spend my pocket money on the latest "single" record, (I struggle to find a cd these days) and the rest on sweets in the week. Family was all important, we as kids at the time could play out safely, and adults could find a pub to have a drink on a Saturday night.I could cross the road on my own at quite a young age as there were a lot fewer cars and actually walk on my own to school. (shock horror). Everybody knew everybody. We didn't have a lot but valued what we did have.
