I remember way back when.....

RE: I remember way back when.....
(January 7, 2019 at 8:15 am)Little lunch Wrote: I don't remember when a bob was 10 cents, but when there were only telephone boxes to communicate outside of home, parents would always say, 'take two bob for the phone' so you could ring and tell them when you wanted to be picked up.

I also remember having to take a candle, a mosquito coil and a box of matches to the outside dunny and then having to shovel sawdust down the hole when finished.

Foreigners, geeze, maybe we do need a wall....... what is a ""bob" and what is a "dunny"?  Razz

FYI, my first portable radio had an 8 track deck in it.
