Dr Whites & those cumbersome belts

God, mrs O - i'd forgotten about them. Awful things.

Searching for things round shops. So much easier to find things online now. I tried online grocery shopping with Tesco for about a year but if something wasn't available they would replace with something more expensive! I also prefer to check my fruit, veg and eggs before buying.

Some things are better forgotten, that's for sure

I remember them Mrs O. We were taught about using thse belt thingys at school but I think they had become a thing of the past by mid 80's I think. I don't remember my mum ever trying to gt me to use one anyway.

Everything is ultra thin now.
