I like the world we live in today. The are some exceptions. These being, modern politics and politicians the EU dictatorship, call centres, greedy banks, rip off companies, reality TV shows like x factor, Big Bro, dancing on ice and the jungle celebrity garbage, recession, silly Political correctness and Graham Norton

I like technology getting better and cheaper plus better/greater N Gauge models.
Things i miss about the past are better tasting Fish and Chips, Hot summers, more varied traction on the railway freight scene, better job prospects, cheaper houses, less state control/interference and people/authorities/organisations with more common sense

and Graham Norton

Whilst conceding he is unlikely to be an avid N-gauge enthusiast, what has Mr Norton done to be singled out for the ire of an owl!

I quite like the EU - it lets me buy trains from Germany without all the hassle about duty and fees  - and it provides us with somewhere to send our drunk chav types to get wasted where it isn't a problem. It even provides us with Spain -  a warm facility to leave all sorts of elderly people where it costs us less

Clothes that actually were the size quoted on the label.
Beer at £1.20 a pint and decent chips at 30p a portion!
