Caterpillars, haven't seen one for about 30 years - and those red ants you used to see (and crush - or was that just us a kids )

So does my grandma! She is that one person the milk man float silently glides down to at 4am ... I’m kind of glad she’s keeping them going
Yeh they are def the only ones in their road too I heard it advertised in a jay rayner podcast, they apparently deliver loads of stuff now not just milk

I’ve had milk delivered for 20 years. On a Friday the milkman also delivers eggs and butter. I’ve never met him but we text now and again!

Wish we had this in our local area as I’d love to support small business

Not a small business but they're all over the country and is who most people getting milk delivered to their doorstep are using these days.

There's a place on the Sign In / Register page where you can put your postcode in to see if they deliver.

Is anybody else old enough to remember that horrible loo paper that was essentially tracing paper? We had it at school. Deeply unpleasant. Not sure if it still even exists.
Yes I remember it well! Just didn't do the job either! And to add insult to injury my grandma had it in her outside loo as well!

That’s the company that MoD and FoD were advertising.
 
The Pier! It was my favourite shop with gorgeous candles, rugs and nick nacks. Nearly every home had one of their lanterns. I wish they would come back!

I’ve been racking my brains trying to remember this range and finally found it, I used to get this range from Tesco but had both of these pencil cases at school!
Wow that just triggered something buried deep in my brain from the 90s. I definitely had a Funky Friends pencil case and CD rack ... also remember “bang on the door” - I thought I was the coolest kid ever with my groovy chick bedding. God I forgot about that.

A milkman who SPEEDS down your street every morning you say? Well, we all know who that is!

My primary school (1994-2000) had this really gross cheap pink toilet paper, anyone else ? I wonder if they still have it in schools . I vividly remember all these wet slabs of it stuck to the ceiling from people throwing it up there. I even remember catching a girl doing it once and being shocked, then impressed , then joining in ...
