50p gas and electic meters.
Well what can i say about these apart from when ever they came to empty the thing there would only be one 50p in there cause for some reason money was tight and dad would brake the lock and just keep putting the same 50p though all the meters then when he wanted some fags use the 50p at the shop then we would run out of electic and send me around next door with a load of pennys for a 50p piece late at night.
There was also the old scouse making Ice 50p pieces get some plasterscene press 50p in it (many times lol) pour in the water pop in the freezer and leave until needed
quality only trouble is that when the meter man came there would be rust inside the box

The gas was best you could lift it up and balance it on a milk bottle(lol perfect for job)and this would stop the needles from spinning
British Gas eventually got on to this scam and started replacing the flexi pipes on the inlet and outlet with solid copper ones

Milk Float.
Dont see many of these about anymore, with an average speed of 15mph every morning going to school or work would see one delivering everything from eggs, bacon, bread, potatoes and of cause milk in all weathers inc snow. not like today when we get an inch of snow the country stops.
crashed one of these into a tree when I used to help on a milk round to make £ when I was at school it was the tree or a metro it had been snowing (should have hit the metro shit cars)

World In Action.
World in Action was a British investigative current affairs programme made by Granada Television for ITV from 7 January 1963 until 7 December 1998
Used to hate this when this came on as a kid as didn't understand what it was about. Things happening around the world but now looking back its was just reporting the shit that goes on today STILL around the world.
Yeah but as adults (sort of lmao) we pay more attention to this shit now lol

Now those although technically retro, that was just an interesting search on eBay.
I can see people buying the PDF's but some links are for pre-owned magazines - that must be a very niche market.
"my god, I am missing Razzle - Year 2 - issue 34, let me do a search on eBay - have to complete the set"
second hand plod mags wow risky could be a sticky situation lol

White Arrow.
The days when parcel delivery was easy not like today's cowboys. Used by catalogue company's back in the day to deliver and collect returns. If you remember you had a white arrow card you placed in your window if you had a return, the guy would knock on/or if you was out you left on the door step, he would collect everyone's happy. The good old days.
Days ....(you missed it of the good old)

Telephone Lock 80's answer to locking a phone.
Well with Reg getting a new toy, and how the telephone lock has been discussed it leads me to place the telephone lock in this topic.
The days when your parents would go down the club and leave you with an underage babysitter only to find that when the bill come in the babysitter had been on the phone all night. So the telephone lock was needed.
wow I remember these all you needed was a small pair scissors and you were in lmao it was a couple of years before my mum cottoned on to this

Toilet Paper.
Anyone else remember using newspaper when you was a kid because your parents couldn't afford toilet paper.
And back then the print didn't stay on the paper like it does today lmao you know what I'm saying also the only thing worse was British Rails toilet paper or should I say tracing paper that just smeared everything around lol

In this topic post anything to do with remembering the good old days with lifestyle in the 70's & 80's that you remember.
The Pay On Answer Phones.
Often housed in these dirty, urine smelling boxes although some still do remain in operation theres very few left.
And the phones that was in them. You could spin a 2p coin in the 10p slot but be quick before them pips run out (for those that remember what pips was) and not Gladys Knight and the pips.
Replaced by these on the early 80's
beep beep beep beep shit I cant get the money in ahhhhh the good old pips lol

when we used to play hide and seek in the street as kids whoever was 'on' had to turn around and then we'd say..
I draw a bare lady upon your back, two tits one crack, which finger dotted it. they would then have to guess which finger drew the crack, each wrong guess gave us 10 extra seconds to hide.
strange take on the old I draw a snake upon your back, but a much better version lol
