    The mother of Mike Nesmith of the Monkees invented a correction fluid called Liquid Paper years before Tipped, which was based on the same idea came out. He inherited over 25million as his share of her estate when she died at a youngish age.

    Eightpence ha'penny for a pint of HB mild, tenpence for a pint of HB bitter. Loved the mild as the landlord & bar staff etc used to pour the slops into it - whiskey, rum ete etc leftovers which made it a much richer taste. Happy days.

    Wing mirrors that actually fastened to the wing, needed a spanner to adjust, and usually looked like a budgies mirror.

    Candlewick bedspreads, itchy blankets or your dad's overcoat before continental quilts came in.

    Star jumpers.
