Thingssss When We Was Young!

[Ghost]

An elderly lady who lives nearby asked me to tune-in her tv the other day.

She started talking about when her husband was outside turning the aerial, and her shouting back if it was getting better or worse .. I bet there’s a few on here that’s done that in their time.

So it got me thinking of a thread, what we remember from yesteryear, that’s not around now!
Just to start off...

Banana splits ( tv ) allways on in the summer holidays.
