We its Friday and already in the office we area talking crap, nothing new then really!

 

We were talking about things you dont see any more.... What happened to those little red and white striped tents that you used to see when there was a BT work man fixing some things in the street. Always with a fat bloke drinking tea and shouting downt he man hole to his mate!

 

Goes along with the white dog poo that used to be every where :rolleyes:

Slightly off topic...........but equally as random

 

Why don't you ever see people emptying change out of phone boxes???? Where does that change go? [or where did it go before phone cards were introduced]

 

why don't we have phone boxes anymore? how come the call charges from phone boxes always go up? why do idiots insist on overtaking at corners at high speed? why don't penguins feet freeze in the cold of the arctic?

 

things you dont see anymore :( ..

1. those little "fish n chip" shaped milk chocolates (use to love em)

2. walkers crinkles (the cheese n chives were the best)

3. secret (chocolate bar) :(

4. TAB clear

white dog shit (what makes it white)

 

Just had a little look, and apparently it was down to the calcium from the amount of bones and shit that they used to put in dog food.

When I was little my, dogs used to enjoy eating my glow in the dark crayons - that made for some interesting dog eggs, never stepped in those at night.:)

 

What happened to Jolly Ranchers as well?

OMG you remember Secret bars too. James has no recollection of them, which is ridiculous. They were brilliant
