Woolworths.

Used to enjoy going in there for sweets and nick nacks.

What else do people miss or wonder what happened to them.

Another is those salons that used fish to nibble your feet. What happened to them?
Car tax disc holders, I suppose they'll be gone soon.
Cigarette machines in pubs, even though i don't smoke, i miss them.

Also, flicking through an Autotrader mag- just not the same scrolling through on a screen.
Yes, good call.

Also I used to enjoy Exchange and Mart.

Bought many a car from there and used to enjoy reading the ads, putting a ring around certain ones and making the call.

Happy days.

I know he posts but his contributions to the match.com thread were both frequent and funny. I miss them.
