The way we were


As I watched this video I occasionally thought "is that someone I knew"?

That playground equipment brings back some memories - imagine what would happen if a council installed a slide like that now!

"The past is a foreign country; they do things differently there..."

Any chance of emigrating?

Macheath - yes playground equipment does bring back memories. That slide is wild, even for those days.

Sam - I often wonder about going back, but I think I'd be disappointed. Just as well it's a fantasy though, the temptation would be there.

I used to enjoy the point in winter when the school milk started to taste of neep. Fond of neep, me.

My father used to point out that In His Day the choice at morning break was milk or "small beer". (Not, I assume, in primary school.)

dearieme - I don't know the flavour of neep. Does it go with haggis? If so I probably do know the flavour - vaguely.
