oh stop it you lot i'm starting to have flash backs, and yes we did have a bw tv with 3 channels the bloody thing would keep rolling and dad you go over and bash the shit out of it and like magic it would come good for another 5 mins, we also had phones that only had 4 digit numbers, steam trains and milkys who delivered milk by horse and cart, the petrol bowser took coins.
now when i tell my 4 kids what it was like then they laugh at me
and by the way i am not 50 yet so it really dosent seem that long ago
