Nostalgia. What takes you back?

I've seen YouTube food vlogs of it eaten there with intestines. Loaded with chili sauce to mask it's bland taste.
I remember going with my Gran to the inside market at Ashton where she'd get Honeycombe, something else equally disgusting and fucking Cowheel.....cover them in vinegar and she was in heaven.

Maybe we're a spoiled generation.
 
Oddly the the smell of cigarettes when people gather outside the pubs, not the stink of stale smoke on your clothes but the fresh smoking smell.
Never smoked in my life but had great times back in the 70's and 80's in pubs and clubs and they were full of smoke and smashing bird's.
It's far better these days without the smoking but memories of a time gone bye.
Agreed. Watching people lighting up in the Maine Stand at a night game.

I think there are still 2 stalls selling tripe in Ashton market. As pensioners die off so does the sale of tripe. My dad used to eat honeycomb and my mum sister and I ate slut(seriously called that) which was more grey and uglier John Major's spitting image puppet!

It's all a load of old tripe to me; )
 
Britpop. I supported Manchester City, listened to great bands and played football in the park for hours. Had longish hair and wore band t-shirts. I went to a Britpop night at 36 in 2016 and danced for hours. I was so happy.
 
When I hear "Cathy's Clown" by the Everly Brothers it takes me back to sunny summer days in Eirias Park Colwyn Bay playing in the Amusements with the juke box next to it. That and Frank Ifield's "I remember You" playing on the waltzers in Wythenshawe Park summon up smells of diesel, mud and candy floss. Happy days.
 
To get the real feel does someone have a bath in the same water before you?
Fckin ell, I was youngest of five mate, sundays bath (ready for school monday) probably resulted in most of my childhood illnesses!!!
