<p>[QUOTE="Chinoiserie, post: 9520895, member: 79460"]I love stripping off wallpaper in old houses and seeing the time capsule of fashion underneath. My gran's house still had the original bakelite light switches in it right up until she passed away in 1993. The toilet cistern was near the ceiling with a big long chain. Everything was dated right down to the food mixer and icing bag she used to make fairy cakes on Sunday when we went round for tea. Oh and the black and white television! The shed was full of broken valve teles and the lawn mower was the type that you pushed. Sorry you set me off on a nostalgia trip then.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
