FabSwingers.com forum: Know your getting old when…

So browsing through the forums and I heard an advert for McDonald’s about a cheese burger meal being £3.99, call me old (I am after this) but I remember the 99p deals on a cheese burger and for the rest added an extra pound onto it so £1.99 for a cheese burger meal. Any other prices make people look back and think how things cheap were? Fredoes are off because inflation made them not worth buying any more

When milkmen were a common sight, postmen came twice a day (and delivered letters twice a day).

The dustman used to carry the metal bin to the cart, and bring it back instead of flinging the wheelie bin down the sodding road. We also used to have a coal man.

All of them were grumpy buggers but used to turn into cheery, lovable chaps in the run up to Christmas, hoping for a large tip!
