Interesting Year 1981 1. Prince Charles got married. 2. Liverpool crowned soccer Champions of Europe . 3. Australia lost the Ashes. 4. The Pope died. Interesting Year 2005 1. Prince Charles got married. 2. Liverpool crowned soccer Champions of Europe . 3. Australia lost the Ashes. 4. The Pope died. Lesson to be learned: The next time Charles gets married, someone should warn the Pope. REMEMBER WHEN: All the girls had ugly gym slips It took five minutes for the TV to warm up Nearly everyone's Mum was home when the kids got home from school Nobody owned a purebred dog You'd reach into a muddy gutter for a penny Your Mother wore nylons that came in two pieces All male teachers wore ties and female teachers had their hair done every day and wore high heels You got your windscreen cleaned, oil checked and petrol served, without asking, all for free, every time.. It was considered a great privilege to be taken out to dinner at a real restaurant with your parents They threatened to keep children back a year if they failed the school year. . . And they did! When a Ford Zephyr was everyone's dream car... And people went steady No one ever asked where the car keys were because they were always in the car, in the ignition, and the doors were never locked Spinning around, getting dizzy and falling down was cause for giggles? Playing cricket with no adults to help the children with the rules of the game Bottles came from the corner shop without safety caps and hermetic seals because no one had yet tried to poison a perfect stranger And with all our progress, don't you wish, just once, you could slip back in time and savour the slower pace, and share it with the children of today? When being sent to the headmasters office was nothing compared to the fate that awaited you at home Basically we were in fear for our lives, but it wasn't because of drive-by shootings, drugs, gangs etc. Our parents and grandparents were a much bigger threat! But we survived because their love was greater than the threat. As well as summers filled with bike rides, cricket, Hula Hoops, skating and visits to the pool, eating lemonade powder or liquorice sticks. Didn't that feel good, just to go back and say, 'Yes, I remember that'? I am sharing this with you today because it ended with a Double Dare to pass it on. To remember what a Double Dare is, read on, and remember that the perfect age is somewhere between old enough to know better and too young to care. Send this on to someone who can still remember the Lone Ranger and Sgt Bilko How Many Of These Do You Remember? Coca Cola in bottles. Blackjacks and bubble gums. Home milk delivery in glass bottles with tinfoil tops Hi-If's & 45 RPM records. 78 RPM records! Adding Machines. Scalextric. Do You Remember a Time When.. Decisions were made by going 'Eeny-meeny-miney-moe'? 'Race issue' meant arguing about who ran the fastest? Catching tadpoles could happily occupy an entire day? It wasn't odd to have two or three 'Best Friends'? The worst thing you could catch from the opposite sex was 'chickenpox'? Having a Weapon in School meant being caught with a slingshot ? War was a card game? Cigarette cards in the spokes transformed any bike into a motorcycle? Taking drugs meant orange - flavoured chewable aspirin? Water balloons were the ultimate weapon? If you can remember most or all of these, Then You Have Lived!!!!!!! Pass this on to anyone who may need a break from their 'Grown-Up' Life. Double Dare You! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- -- ________________________________________________ This e-mail or attachment(s) may contain confidential or legally privileged information intended for the sole use of the addressee(s).
