Were the “good old days” really that good?

Um, yes, I think they were. Filling the family car with petrol didn’t cost the equivalent of a South American country’s foreign debt and three pints of beer in your local didn’t require auctioning off a kidney to pay the tab.

I know, I know, everybody gets nostalgic from time to time, but these days, the TV schedules are full of karaoke and fake tans and the shops are full of toys that require a degree in engineering and board games that would baffle Stephen Hawking.

Once upon a time we all had simpler pleasures, and we reckon www.doyouremember.co.uk is a great place to wallow in some bygone eras.

You can see all those things you’d thought you’d forgotten about, like Star Bars, Haircut 100 and Rentaghost.

If you’re of a certain age, you’ll feel better for it. If you’re a bit younger than some of us, you’ll find the “Technology” section one of the funniest things you’ll see all week.
