Well really. I'll have you know I only just remember pre-decimal currency, punched cards, and petrol going over £1 a gallon.



I remember London trams, the farthing and petrol at 2/6d a gallon, but
I'm not yet old or frail.


London trams? They exist today, don't they? :-)

I too am far from old or frail but I remember sugar and sweets being
rationed.
