Brings back memories of the 50s and early 60s - moved out of London mid 60s and have to say not missed it one bit since ;)

Yep. very good, Rods. :y

If I had a time machine I'd travel back to 1947, and see if an alien spacecraft or a weather balloon crashed at Roswell. ;)

My money is on the balloon. :y

Yes - I love this stuff. Not sure I would want to go back though.

I am in West Africa a lot and picked up some photos of Ghana (then called the Gold Coast) from 1933. In rural areas not much has changed.

Oh the memories!! :y :y

Great post, but it just reminds me that I would not want to go back, preferring instead to be 18 again in today's world with all the knowledge and experience I now have! ;D ;D ;D ;) ;)
