    These are the two big ones for me, media scaremongering has led to seclusion.

    Pathetic little children who won't leave the house because they have no social skills so they spend their entire lives in virtual worlds on their TV screen.

    Absolutely ridiculous. I'd rather my kid went out and got into trouble and or fights than ended up a 6 stone div kid with a vitamin D deficiency and more spots than Dusty Rhodes' wrestling clobber.

    Pavements that looked like concrete or brick or the like, rather than discarded chewing gum. Anyone else noticed the increase in this over the last couple of years ?

    Back in the day, I'd respect each and every one of my elders. I'd often be told by my mum to help the old dear weeding her garden etc.

    Nowadays, they're all too busy telling us how **** we all are and how we wouldn't last a day growing up in the 30's and 40's.

    "Back in my day we used to carry coal from the shop for 6 miles with no shoes on and no clothes on and dogs would bite us all the way home in gale-force winds and we'd get home and our houses would have burnt down and we'd have to rebuild them before it started raining and we'd get a meal of a scruffy end bit of turnip in cold water to last us 8 months and everybody would gather round and fart on each other in the winter to keep warm, you lot don't know you're born"

    Chalk??? Posh git, we used to use and old stone to scratch the wall and we couldn't afford jumpers so used two old bricks. Or played gates in the front street.

    Taking an old washed out pop bottle to the offy to get filled with sherry for me mam and her mates.

    Going to the bookies with a note from me dad so i could put his bet on.

    The smell of bread when i used to get off the bus at the top of my grandmothers street in Grangetown. No one bakes bread anymore.

    When kitchens were called Skulleries and we had a larder, not a fridge, mind you could hang meat for months in there it was that cold.

    adult price about £9-10, Child about £7-8.
    About £13 for 3D film and extra if you want an executive seat.
    Don't buy popcorn or any sweets and stuff there as its way OTT, we get ours at a supermarket before we go.
    Hot dogs and other stuffs is laughable, eat before you go mate.
    We get tickets for about £7.50 each and as there are only the 2 off us its not too bad.
    Oh and don't forget the parking ticket as well.

    Straight Outta Compton I think, before that it was Unbroken, can't remember actually, might have been the other way round, whichever was released most recently.

    She wants to drag me to see Greek Fat Big Wedding 2 on Friday, man, **** my life.

    I watched a decent film on Saturday actually, Black Mass about Whitey Bulger, the cast is brilliant, Jonny Depp, Benedict Cumberbatch, Kevin Bacon, Joel Edgerton.

    Me owld fella used to go to the clubs with his mates and all the women used to end up in our house so me mother used to rinse out an old pop bottle and send me to the offy with a note of consent type thing to get it filled with dry sherry. Obviously must have been cheaper than buying a bottle i suppose.
