I particularly liked the one about 'temporary' school buildings. The school I taught at was built immediately after World War II, with a 'temporary' block being built first, while the main building was constructed parallel to it. That 'temporary' building became known as the 'Bristol Block' because it was put up by workers from the Bristol Aircraft company (who would have otherwise been out of work after the war, using aircraft components. So it was made of aluminium, glass, aircraft panels and (as we later found out) asbestos. It was built with a maximum two-year life span but it was still there when I joined the school in 1975. It was also still there when I left, 15 years later! (Fortunately someone had the good sense to set fire to my old classroom a year after that, burning the whole block to the ground!)

Yes to most, no to a few.


Still like a crisp butty but now with proper butter.

Can still smell the caps Baz, and remember the the small circular cardboard container they came in. Can't remember how many caps though came in each round cardboard container.

>>> Can't remember how many caps though came in each round cardboard container

100 seems to be fairly standard, Sam, which was only enough for about 5 minutes shooting at those damned Red Indians ;-)

Kids playing with guns now would result in a armed rapid response unit to the location

Times certainly have changed

That couldn't possibly happen, could it? ;-)

100 sounds about right Chris. And yes you're right Baz, times certainly have changed.

One other thought comes to mind though, had a little transistor radio which I used to listen to under the sheets when I went to bed. Radio Luxembourg was the crackly station I used to listen to.
