No.

In the middle 90s I tried to leave the building trade and became a milkman sorry delivery person

And it was the hardest 6 months ever.

I used to start at 11.30 pm and apart from Tuesday I'd be lucky to get home by 3pm the following day, every Monday you'd get to work and if they'd been out canvassing for new customers you would have another 20/30 new deliveries to do.

I had almost 700 on my round by the time I quit, it was soul destroying honestly if I'd been offered it on a plate I genuinely wouldn't have had the energy.

We still have one on our street. He usually delivers between midnight and 1am though.

For the caramac lovers out there, you can get a variant of toblerone which tastes very similar. Not identical because that would be too optimistic, but not bad.

I miss when bigots, 'phobes, and racists weren't so confident about sharing their hate in public.

There's still a milkman in my village, he seems to do fairly well. I also miss Toffos, I don't know if you can have them imported now but for a long time they were available only in the UAE.

"Was there any truth to the stereotype of milk men getting it on with women while their husbands were at work? 🤔"

Plumbers have all the housewives now Joe, not milkman.

Although, window cleaners still have a small percentage of the market.

"White dog poo. "

Came here to say this! I remember no one picking up after their dog when I was little, getting dog poo on your shoes was always a risk when you were out playing. I know you sometimes see it still, but haven't seen a white dog turd in years

Huddersfield

A bag of chips wrapped in newspaper.

PC games that came in big cardboard boxes with manuals.

Going to the cinema early because Screen 1 premieres were often sold out.

Knocking on someone's door and asking to use their telephone.

Seeing men in hats and wearing trouser braces and elderly couples dressed in their Sunday best almost every day.

When each decade could be defined by its fashion.

In the early 2000's all the guys I knew wore opened collared formal shirts and a chain necklace. The smart and sexy look. These days I can't event tell what is the modern male trend. Hoodies and facemasks? Hard to tell what year it is. When I look back at Google street view to 2015, 2010, 2008 the fashion seems to improve or at least become more consistent the further I rewind as the new buildings come down and the old demolished buildings come back up.

On a related note has anyone been caught on Google street view going into a swingers club?

The art of good conversation.

I've been running bars in the UK for decades and have seen what smart phones have done to people.

Everywhere I look in the bar, I see groups of friends and couples sitting together in silence just scrolling through some crap on their phones instead of talking to eachother.

It's really sad to see.
