it's only due to the efforts and sacrifices that us over 50's have made over the years that you young sprogs have a life at all.

Gave you an old for that one.
Sad thing is I remember the above prices also, so it's only fair I receive an old too.

I best not tell you how much they cost after decimalisation then.
And what was wrong with phones going, Ring,,ring.
Why do they have to have a billion ring tones, none of which go Ring,,Ring.
If it goes Ring,,Ring, it's the phone.
If it warbles, plays music or some other tone it could be anything including the door alert (bell), microwave, washing machine, dishwasher, kids on games or a million other devices.
Even the cars sound tones when the doors open or the seat belt isn't in or the lights are on or you're going too fast.
And yes, DR Who has gone downhill since the first series.

Yes, it’s much better in colour.
Never had the slightest interest in Dr Who, I was a kid when it first came on air and wasn't allowed to watch it, so consequently, never bothered with it, now Star Trek, the X files, space 1999 that's a different thing altogether, oh and don't forget Star Gate the first series, that bloke with the thing on his bonce is great, Tealc is it ?
People use the self service pumps and pay inside.
On a side note I thought she was alright as the new doctor.

Was that really worth repeating 3 times, Pete?
You were a kid when Who first started? That makes you about 60 odd year old.
Which Star Trek are you referring to? The original, the next generation, the new films or the new, new series?
Star Gate? MacGuyver was in that. (Richard dean Anderson)
And the original battlestar galactica with Face from the A team
Jody Whitaker is good as the Doctor. I have no problem with a female Who.... The story just sucked.
3 or 4 mysterious deaths and the bodies weren't taken or vapourised? That's going to involve police, witness statements,post mortem etc etc.
And why does the Doctor always take his/her companions from present day Earth?
Pick up an alien/ caveman/ future person as a permanent companion.
Yum. Findus French bread pizza for tea followed by Angel Delight. Washed down with soda stream cola and a packet of opal fruits for later

A bloke stood at those new order boards in mcdees which I know are convenient when it's busy but the counter was empty. It took the pleb 3 times longer than it would have if he had just approached the 3 members of staff that were dying to serve him.

3p for a Mars bar, when they used to be sixpence, extortionate!

I hated it when a pint went up to 52p.48p for a pint of Watney’s Triple Crown at the local after youth club
I think it was the only trade they got.
Such a pain getting the change into my trouser pockets.
Thank God I no longer have to wear such tight trousers.
That's only 1/2p more ...

Deleted member 26818
1/2p was equivalent to just over 1d.
There's some round here that seem to revel in such behaviour in my local small Sainsburys.
Yes I'll have some cigs please but can you tell me all the prices first ? And then 7 random scratchcards, all different of course, oh and the actual lottery. Weekend and midweek please. I'll need to pay for the smokes on my card but the lottery will all be cash. I'll get all the stuff packed up before I remember I actually came in for some money on my electric.........
Don't get that sort of fuss in the Co-op for some reason.
Faaaarrr too young to remember anything like that thank goodness.
My reasoning was 6/240 = 0.025, so equivalent to 2.5 new pence ?
Maccy D’s new screens?

Running with the theme of moaning.....My local Co-Op cash machine never has any money in it....It doesn’t tell you this though, it lets you go through the whole process before it comes up that it’s empty
You’re lucky it has a cash machine at all, they’re all being stolen around here. They nick a big bit of plant from a local site then use it to rip a cash machine out of a wall

That happened here as well about 10 years ago. Nicked a digger and pulled two out the wall in the highstreet.

Queing in the bank to pay some cash in, four in the que.
The stupid woman customer at the till decided to start a conversation with the staff member, even though her transactions were complete. Standing there for ages listening to their crap.
