And don't forget Guinness at 30p a pint!

People always remember how cheap beer (or petrol, or a packet of fags) was, but somehow forget to mention that their weekly wage packet was £13.50 and a packet of Luncheon Vouchers (worth 75p).

Well, that's what I was earning in 1974 anyway.

And I didn't drink Guinness anyway, my local served some appalling muck called Worthington E, and the one round the corner sold Double Diamond.

The closest I could get to a decent pint in those pre-CAMRA days was Courage Directors in the West End.

Ah yes, I remember when all this were cloth caps ...

I lived in Chiswick surrounded by Youngs and Fullers pubs.

Sunday was great for TV. CHiPs used to be on in the afternoon just before The Big Match. What more could anyone want?

CHiPs was on at Saturday tea-time, Sunday was for The Professionals.

I dreaded Sunday evenings. Jeez, from about 5pm on it was purgatory! Religious programmes and un-funny sh*t like Dad's Army and weird music shows with acapella groups ( the Swingle Singers) and tawdry folk acts. Grim indeed!

Dads Army - un-funny sh*t , your opinion.

Lots of folks will disagree.
