Hey, I wasn't even born 50 years ago... And how good it feels to still be able to say that, which I will do, at every availably opportunity, for the next three years. Even so, I still remember the stench of those malodorous monochrome years - the coal smoke, the dank body odours, the smog, the leaded petrol & diesel fumes, and the cigarettes! Everyone, it seemed, smoked everywhere, all the time, casting all to the dirty smelly stain that was suddenly brightened up by the first Pakistani owned corner shop opening in our village when suddenly the sun seemed to come out and my infant nostrils sang to other more exotic fragrances. And as for Folk Music, we had to make do with This, which I still love by the way... just watching it now I am washed over by waves of comforting nostalgia. Seminal stuff!

Thanks for the land & seascape, Will - more English nostalgia anyone? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=re0ASyzKnIM
