Decided to give the carpet a spruce up, and being a good 70s boy, I popped into Tesco and found they still sold this trendsetter from the best decade.

This tells me three things:

1) I loved growing up in the 70s

2) My carpets are fruity fresh

3) I need to get out more

What are you nostalgic for from your youth, and how's your Saturday going?

It's actually more difficult to find but windolene.... Yes it's strong in odour which some would say it pongs but does the job brilliantly

It’s impossible not to sing the song, the dance often turns into I Want To Break Free, I find

Probably not. But my youth was the sixties and seventies. Most people on this site weren't even born

I feel quite nostalgic about the empty, quiet streets on those days but I still want to buy milk at 3:30 pm on Sunday though

I think I had a weird crush on the woman in the advert. I think it was the mania in her eyes.

I think mostly nostalgic about chocolate bars that were a decent size and didn't disappear in the first bite. And soft drinks with sugar in them.

When your carpet smells fresh, your room does too, every time you vacuum, remember what to do!

They were a staple lunch food on the days I went home for lunch from school! Absolutely loved those, even if they did melt the roof of your mouth ever time.
