  • Seeing the frost today it reminded me of going to school in the 50 and early ‘60’s, wearing short trousers until you were 11 or 12 and getting chapped legs, and mum treating it with a good dollop of Vaseline. The pleasing thing is you never hear of chapped legs and kids don’t wear short trousers to school.

    The first two cars i remember my mum having, an A30 and an A40, didn't have heaters. I didn't get my first pair of long trousers until I started secondary school. Character building.

  • Finding loads and loads of B movies from the 40s, 50s and 60s on YouTube!
    I’ve spent the last couple of evenings enjoying The Shape of Things to Come, The 27th Day, They Came from Beyond Space and Red Planet Mars!
    Great stuff!

    Not just 50's and early 60s. I did the same in the 80s.

    Finding a new (to me) bit of Maths info that will actually be of use to me. 

    I’m not sure how I didn’t know this before - but I found out that percentage calculations are reversible. 

    ie 7% of 50 is the same as 50% of 7. 

    This is probably the first bit of practical maths knowledge I have learnt in about 30 years 😄
    cant see it being particularly useful myself though.
    Maybe its just me (it most probably is), but I'm working out percentages on quite a regular basis.
  • I've become very envious of people who have a real passion and hobby like trainspotters. I guess supporting Charlton is one but I'm not obsessive about it. 
    It's good to have a hobby, it's healthy.
