Going outside and playing with friends , building dens , building go-karts ,
Going out and exploring .
The excitement of the local fair coming once a year as it has for the past 700 hundred years and is the largest traveling fair in Europe , this year is the 1st time it hasn't been thanks to the CCP virus .
not knowing what friends had been upto all week until you met up face to face
buying a daily paper that had real news in it and looking at the tv guid to see what was on the 4 channels and having to have a VCR because it was good tv and two things always clashed .
going out at weekend to pub and meeting up with mates for a catch up , game of pool , and if you where lucky pick up a girl /boy
getting up on a saturday then off to the city centre to do some shopping and have something to eat and renting a movie from Blockbusters for saturday night
Not being so brainwashed by tech that you didnt think it was a good idea to spend £15 on a single light bulb you can turn off with your latest must have smartphone.
Knowing your full streets household names , that all spoke the same language as you and didnt just dump their old mattress and tv in the street when they bought a new one .
Rose tinted spectacles ? , i dont think so , i`m not saying everything was perfect but it was a damn sight better than the shit hole the worlds turned into now .
