Birmingham in 1960s

[Vivienne14]

Didn't know Cadburys Selection boxes were first exclusive to Brum. Although you wouldn't have found a Curly Wirly in your selection box until the 1970s.

That’s fantastic Peter. What a lot of memories…. We just need a Time Machine now to go back to those good old days. Apart from the outside toilets!
Btw I do wash on a Monday, have our milk from a Milkman and cook a Sunday roast.
Yes I’m a dinosaur …!

Me too, no Microwave, no work on a Sunday, Roast dinner . No decking. No patio heater. Partner still darns and mends. Makes attractive nutritious meals from left overs, not bubble and squeak thankfully though. No video. The outside toilet is still here but is now inside but still like it was. Still got a spinner you put your knee on to hold it.

Lemonella you're the first young lady I've heard complain about the clothes of the 60's

My mum liked them she said I love the modern fashions you can wear what you like.

NIco perhaps I should have said imitators , copycats trying to relive those fantastic days long after they'd gone . It's a bit like records Nico you get cover versions but nothing beats the original

I like a cover if it has a different take on it, if you know what I mean. But not rip offs.
