The first thing you do when you get home is put the news on. ITV News though. Can't be doing with BBC News.

And you start to enjoy Watch Dog, Tonight with Trevor McDonald and Antiques Roadshow!

You remember when things cost half of what they do now (this has already happened to me - I can remember buying a Dairy Milk Bar for 20p!)

When someone gets up and offers you their seat on the bus

Hubba Bubba used to be 10p and they did an Original Flavour.

This still happens to me whan I go to Costcutter / Londis and see bars of chocolate for 48p and I think they cost half that everywhere else ... but of course they don't!
