My how things have changed?

Thank you Joe for restoring my sanity....I keep telling my kids I grew up happily in a world where we had 3 TV channels, a black and white TV, no internet, and the nearest cinema had one screen and was 32 miles away. There was no netflix, no video games, no mobile phones, no PCs and no social media.

They look at me wild-eyed and say: 'what on earth did you do with yourself all day?'

I say proudly, 'well, we talked to each other and read books.....'

And they laugh!!

Happy Days!
We spent our days happily beating the crap out of each other :hihi:

Football, soccer, baseball, it didn't matter. Everything degenerated into a brawl.

For some peculiar reason, our parents did not want us in the house when we were in grade school. If it wasn't raining then to a man we were thrown out.
