A lovely sense of nostalgia. I’m completely perplexed at how expensive a good life is! But perhaps my tastes have grown as my income has. And perhaps the simplicity of being 18 is just that, nostalgia

I'm really glad this resonated. I suspect the expensive "good life" was always there but we just ignored it when we were young. Perhaps as our incomes have increased we just got access to it and don't want to go back!

Jeez, those were the days, now in London we're creeping towards a ten pound pint, the world's gone mad! Thanks for sharing that, enjoyed it.

Not much better in Manchester - a £7 pint wouldn't surprise me hear. I remember thinking it was crazy when I heard of London hitting £5!

Why in tough times does alcohol always go up, life's not fair, lol!
