I'm with you there Maureen. It's difficult to know whether or not time has dimmed the bad memories, but I don't seem to have any!

And they had proper dummies in them days, not the ones they have now that covers half the baby's face x

Yes and the prams were gorgeous..babies looked so cosy in them..todays buggy's offer hardly any protection against the bad weather..and who needed bags when you had all that room..top and bottom..oh happy days.
