how did we survive in the 50's and 60's .......

But the she worked for the Co-Op from the age of 14...

funny how you can remember a number when you hear it every day as a
bairn

Doesn’t need to be every day either, I can still remember a couple of
phone
numbers from the time when I was in the bottom end of highschool.

you had a phone? ..LUXURY....We didn't have one 'till '66 ....0141 889
9010


I remember the ice cream man coming round with his bicycle and a large
insulated box on the front.

I remember a Wall's ice cream rep coming around with a block of new formula
vanilla in a polystyrene box for us to rate because we didn't have a
'fridge.....
