Sat in the pub last night discussing the usual stuff,crime ,politics,football etc and came to the conclusion that being born in the mid forties was not a bad time at all.
Being a teenager in the sixties seeing England win the world cup,listening to the best music of all time,crime was nothing compared to today(murder actually made the front page)Add to that England was England without the PC brigade,river fishing was good with no fish artificially inflated on high protein baits.
Yes we had srikes and the great strides in medicine had not been made but at least we lived in a less overcrowded land without the dreaded mobile phone(yes people actually spoke to each other)
There again i might be waxing lyrical about a time that might not have been as good as my memory tells me it was.
