Things you just dont see anymore (done before but good)
The Sayers Bread Van
Coal lorry
Fizzy drinks van
Cars jacked up on the street (except in St Helens)
Rainmates (the little clear plastic bags old dears used to wear on their heads)
Rows of White dog ****e lining all the way down the kerb
Kids running after each other with Bows and arrows made out of sharpened bamboo
Space hoppers
20 a-side footie matches
A flock of 100 sparrows descending into your garden at once to fight over a crusty slice of bread
No Food or Programmes as they've been done to death
Didn't someone say you never see an old granny throwing a bucket of water over two dogs sh@ggin in her front garden anymore

Coal lorry? Beg to differ, there's still a coal merchants near me and he still pops round to places with sacks of coal, albeit in plastic bags, rather than the lovely hessian sacks I used to be clothed in
Fizz drinks van, ahhh, reminds me of good ol Terry "Juice" Lawson
Space hoppers, sure I saw one over here the other day in Toys R Us

Fishmongers - ahh, sad sign of the times. My mates family used to run the local fishmongers, had to close due to the supermarket causing lack of business (feel bad as i was working as a fishmonger at the supermarket at the time)

Good quality vandalism and the vandals to go with it.
What ever happened to our great tradition of wanton destruction. Much better than doing crappy tagging graffitti - so much more pleasure in wrecking a bus shelter, train compartment or smashing windows and fittings in new empty houses for example.

'Arfur Daley' type car lots - several rusing old motahs standing forlornly on a patch of muddy ground, with the 'office' inside a very small caravan.
