My friend's father had one moved onto his propeerty in the Pocono Mountains and used it as a summer cottage.

I remember seeing a campsite with some of them you could rent. Really cute.

Here're some:

Dad still has bread & dripping on the odd occasion we have roast beef.
Then again, he used to have cold Yorkshire puddings with jam.

Grandad always talked about kippers and jam, but I don't know that he ever ate it. Jam would seem like an expensive addition to something that didn't really need it.

Ashtrays in pubs/ workplaces.
Nothing dates a TV drama quite as much as people smoking inside.
It's because the ban is relatively new - in 10 years time it will all simply look "old" whereas now it's recent enough to jar.
(Watching The Green Wing the other day and was really quite shocked to see people smoking at work).

I've been watching Mad Men, though it's made now it's set in the late 60s early 70s, they smoked all over the damn place in those days. EVEN ON PLANES!

Roseanne did a bit about it on her show: Lucy smoked, Desi smoked, Bewitched smoked. I don't know about the second Darrin but the first Darrin smoked.

Gotta read that tonight.

I love freaking out checkers by having exact change ready before I'm rung up.

I just took an orienteering class.

Damn. I'm feeling old.

That is exactly what I'm saying. Map and a compass have become archaic.
