Has all the good stuff gone?

Finding a porno mag in the woods was like winning the lottery, online porn has robbed the latest generation of winning the lottery on the walk home from school.

Cigarettes at £1.10 for a 10 deck, gone, it’s a tenner for 20 now, long gone are the days of buying 20 for a night out and a cheeky 10 for the sledge home at 5 am.

5am FFS, I see that regularly and not as a result of a wrap of whizz.

Booze is still cheap but you need that much of it to get pissed that it’s not really that cost effective, can’t take drugs because responsible

I suppose there’s always YouTube.

Ah waff mags and 10 cigs (they were 89p when I bought them) the sound of my childhood.

Yeah but back when they were that price I earned £14 a week doing a paper round, or later £120 a week doing an apprenticeship, so comparatively they’re much cheaper now!

Bloody horrible things anyway, I gave up years ago!

But is it the year, or your age that has changed (by 20 years)?

hmmmmm, good question. I wouldn't be owning a BMW 20 years ago, and I would be still out at a club looking for a shag.

Depends on the brand being honest but it’s pretty dear for a decent one.
