Remembering the good old days and what we got up to. Playing subbueto on the dining room table was entertaining!

Goalkeeper always went to ground to early. I preferred striker.

The simple things like you could have a face to face conversation. These days people are glued to their smartphones.

Exactly that, it's quite rare now to pass a young person in the street who isn't looking at their left or right hand!

For balance, it might be worth running a parallel thread on what wasn't so great about the 70s.

Yes you're right the 70's has stikes and power cuts, petrol queuing and Swindon had to play Pompey in a cup game midweek in the winter at 2pm as they wouldn't allowed to have the floodlights on

Hose pipe bans, abysmal road surfaces, Yorkshire Ripper, problems in the Middle East, aeroplane hijackings, rubbish England football team and failing to qualify for World Cups, flares, platform shoes, long hair - The list is endless!
