Re: Who remembers...........
- I remember 144 pennies in a pound
- Learning about guineas in maths class
- Learning logs, sin and cosin on a slide rule
- Andy Pandy and Muffin the Mule
- Playing out meant playing out, for hours, without parental supervision
- silver six shooters with caps, bows and "arrers,"
- doing some light shopping for my mum when I was only 8
Getting the cane at school, and the strap again when I got home!
