My daughter asked me what I was talking about the other day when we had the radio on in the car and I said I like this record.

I remember that, it was nice. Also remember when the Blackjacks wrapper had a golliwog face on it, and you could buy sweet cigarettes where the end was dyed red and even buy non-edible fags which were filled with chalk dust and you could blow a puff of dust out to look like smoke All very politically incorrect now.

Yep, and ours They obviously knew you were way too young but still flogged them to you. We had one shop used to sell a cigarette which we used to call a 'joystick', about 3 times the length of a normal one. When we were flush we would buy a pack of 5 and a book of matches, we thought we looked the boll*cks walking down the road coughing our lungs out.

Slightly different but... whenever children draw houses there's always a chimney with smoke coming out of it and the same with drawings of trains.

 

Every time I hear a "record" on radio 2 that I've got I say to my son, "I've got this one on vinyl...you can have it when I die."
