Re: Is there anything you miss from when you were younger?
It was bad enough when the money started to change, I went through three types of currency in my lifetime, the old LSD system, then decimalisation, and now the Euro, enough to do your head in. Then came the kilo’s and the litres followed by the millimetres and the kilometers, wouldn’t you think they’d give you a long rest to digest all that stuff, not a bit of it, they take all the knobs off the TV’s so you can’t switch them on or off anymore, you have to use a remote control, and just when you’ve mastered the art of taping shows on the VCR they switch over to discs and the tapes are useless, so is the bloody VCR, I won’t begin to talk about the whole new language you have to learn just to use a computer.Re: Is there anything you miss from when you were younger?
I have never got to grips with the metric system either I can gauge so many things in lb oz and pints without weighing/measuring them, I just can't visualise things in grams or litres .
