    I think I've still got my badge somewhere. We were tested by the local police sergeant who was a huge guy we did NOT mess with or antagonise. Everyone knew his name and everyone respected him, especially us kids.

    Being shocked when a pint went over the quid.
    Natural looking girls.
    Ringing your mates telephone on a rotary dial... and it only had 3 numbers... Matt’s was 432, Eric’s was 468
    When the first push button tellys came in and you didn’t have to tune it in on a dial...
