Take a trip down memory lane..
 
What do you remember from your childhood that gives you an overwhelming sensation of nostalgic bliss?

I remember "Denim" - the aftershave and "You and Me" with "Crow" and "Hamster" and "Pipkins" with "Hartley Hare"...too name but a few.....

Nivea lotion always reminds me of childhood holidays. It was our sunscreen in those days and however much I use it now, I still get flashbacks to sitting on the beach on the Isle of Wight :lol:

I've also got an old cut crystal glass that belonged to my grandmother. When I visited her, I was always allowed my Ribena in this glass. I still only use it for Ribena and as soon as I use it, I'm back in her kitchen just for a split second.
