We didn’t realise how good we had it.

Back when normality meant normality, when the glow of the orange street lights meant its home time. When all you had in your pocket was a stone you thought looked cool. When you didn't have to look over your shoulder & could go for a walk at any point in the night. When the biggest threat was your neighbours garden looking better than your own. Simplicity was and will always be the best.

And we’ll never get it back 😔

I know, we've been robbed of the greatest era and its been replaced with mass stupidity and virtue signalling.

I love these videos. They literally bring a tear to my eye. Nostalgia hurts 😭

Me too 😢 I miss it soo much!

Feels less like nostalgia, and more like bereavement. Feels less like these times died, and more like they were murdered.

Such a shame that in the hands of conservatives and labour they have completely destroyed our once beautiful countries and are intent on turning into a third world shit hole

They took this from us. We were never asked, we were told.

Love this🤩🥰 These clips make me feel happy and sad at the same time. We really didnt realise just how good we had it.

We were progressing nicely...We were looking forward to the future until the turn of the millenium...What the fk happened???

Yep seems everything was fine until the year 2000 😢

OMG the memories Thank-you xxxx

Yes we did! We lived in the moment. That’s when you know everything is perfect

Beautiful 😻

❤️

Such a privilege to be a gen Xr… most of us never had too much growing up but we had what we needed and most importantly we had FREEDOM … If only we could return 😊

The. Blair cane along

@Wedge_81 Damn, the good old days. The Superman, Rocky and Woolworths clips hit me like a ton of bricks! What a beautiful tidal wave of nostalgia ❤️

And besides all that, we had a higher trust society.

We made it good. And we made sure it was good. Effort and will power without discarding what we knew we had to do. The best years in history have been lived.

Yup. It’s sad at how things have changed so much and not for the better! 🌷❤️🩹

Yep! But I fear what is to come will make today look not so bad.

Fucking miss these days it’s all gone to shit

👍Mine in the 40's and 50's was even better! Even more freedom, better education, better social standards. As to homophobia, was there, but didn't seem to affect my cousin Dennis and his partner Bill much, who lived openly together running an off licence in a small W. Yorks town.

It’s so depressing what the UK has become.

i wish we could go back to that time

What I wouldn't give for a time machine.

🥹🥹🥹💖 take me back pls 😭

Love this. Not a woke twat in sight!

My Mum was like that and part of that gen. Way healthier people and people were way less promiscuous too. Now everything is out of control with drugs, alcohol, promiscuity, degeneracy ,etc.

Beautiful montage

This is awesome 👌 Take me back pleassssse 🙏

Ahhhhh I needed that

Where the fuck did it go😭

Aaaawwww the memories. Those definitely were the best times ❣️

When we had hope for the future, just at look at what they stole from us. I don't just want it back, I want even.

so true 😢

I’ve never left TNL .! 🎩🥃

That made me well up 😢 🥹
