[Peter Pedant]

too many memories

[MartinMillar]

Only if the values are different from those in the 60’s

[Peter Pedant]

// from those in the 60’s//
am I the only one to remember - yes clearly

colour bar - Notting hill - not luvvies - riots! ( and not wiv handbags eever)
Tax at 98% - the £12 000 suit - if you are taxed at the marginal rate 98% you needed gross £12k for a £250 suit
which was a jolly lot I can tell you
mods n rockers
beehives - that is a hair cut for chrissakes - hair style ay mean

Morning assembly should be brought back. A hymn, prayers, and a spoken lesson from the head.
Some patriotism would be good

My daughters school does this. I thought all schools still did assemblies?

Maybe cut the religion out and that's a good idea.
