But one thing that does stick in my mind was that we used to play outside in the road and if a car came you just shouted "CAR" moved your cricket stumps, ball, bat whatever you were playing with, let the car past then just carried on playing in the street again!

Sweets, crisps and fizzy drink were not part of your mum's weekly shop either, we got them once a week with our pocket money from the village shop.
