Did you notice the cigarette machine, mounted on the wall, outside a shop?

That would probably last about 5 minutes, these days...!!!!???

Signs of the times, huh!

They were regularly vandalised in the 70s as well. but they made things from sterner stuff back then.


There's a real danger that the left will drag Britain back to the 1970s, with secure well-paid jobs, ample housing, properly-funded NHS and social care, free tuition, student grants, final salary pensions, affordable rail fares and fabulous films and music. David Osland 2025

I have the dvd, just over an hour and a half. A collection of clips from Wirral starting from the 1900's all the way through the decades up to the 1990's. Made by Angus Tilston. Think the dvd is called Wirral past. If anybody is interested in it let me know.
