Remember Great Britain ???

Copyright © 2008 JihadWorksBothWays

The good old days before the government regulators started running our lives "for our own good" !!!

CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL MY FRIENDS WHO WERE BORN IN THE 40's, 50's, 60's and early 70's !

First, we survived being born to mothers who smoked and/or drank while they carried us and lived in houses made of asbestos..
They took aspirin, ate blue cheese, raw egg products, loads of bacon and processed meat, tuna from a can, and didn't get tested for diabetes or cervical cancer.
Then after that trauma, our baby cots were covered with bright coloured lead-based paints.
We had no childproof lids on medicine bottles, doors or cabinets and when we rode our bikes, we had no helmets or shoes, not to mention, the risks we took hitchhiking.
As children, we would ride in cars with no seat belts or air bags.
We drank water from the garden hose and NOT from a bottle.
Take away food was limited to fish and chips, no pizza shops, McDonalds, KFC, Subway or Nandos.
Even though all the shops closed at 6.00pm and didn't open on Sundays, somehow we didn't starve to death!
We shared one soft drink with four friends, from one bottle and NO ONE actually died from this.
We could collect old drink bottles and cash them in at the corner store and buy Toffees, Gobstoppers, Bubble Gum and some bangers to blow up frogs with.
We ate cupcakes, white bread and real butter and drank soft drinks with sugar in it, but we weren't overweight because......

WE WERE ALWAYS OUTSIDE PLAYING!!

We would leave home in the morning and play all day, as long as we were back when the streetlights came on.
No one was able to reach us all day. And we were O.K.
We would spend hours building our go-carts out of old prams and then ride down the hill, only to find out we forgot the brakes. We built tree houses and dens and played in river beds with matchbox cars.
We did not have Playstations, Nintendo Wii, X-boxes, no video games at all, no 999 channels on SKY, no video/dvd films,
No mobile phones, no personal computers, no Internet or Internet chat rooms...........WE HAD FRIENDS and we went outside and found them!
We fell out of trees, got cut, broke bones and teeth and there were no Lawsuits from these accidents.
Only girls had pierced ears!
We ate worms and mud pies made from dirt, and the worms did not live in us forever.
You could only buy Easter Eggs and Hot Cross Buns at Easter time...
We were given air guns and catapults for our 10th birthdays.
We rode bikes or walked to a friend's house and knocked on the door or rang the bell, or just yelled for them!
Mum didn't have to go to work to help dad make ends meet!
RUGBY and CRICKET had tryouts and not everyone made the team. Those who didn't had to learn to deal with disappointment. Imagine that!! Getting into the team was based on

MERIT

Our teachers used to hit us with canes and gym shoes and bully's always ruled the playground at school.
The idea of a parent bailing us out if we broke the law was unheard of, they actually sided with the law!
Our parents didn't invent stupid names for their kids like 'Chardonnay, Kiora' and 'Blade' and 'Ridge' and 'Vanilla'
We had freedom, failure, success and responsibility, and we learned, HOW TO DEAL WITH IT ALL!

And YOU are one of them ?

CONGRATULATIONS!

You might want to share this with others who have had the luck to grow up as kids, before the lawyers and the government regulated our lives for our own good.

And while you are at it, forward it to your kids so they will know how brave their parents were.

PS -The big type is because your eyes are not too good at your age anymore, hahahaha !!!

this is our country. why are we letting people burn our flag lets fight back

[boffinme80]

I miss those days! Britain WAS Great Britain back then. We all had jobs, were paid a lot, streets were safer to play in, pedophiles were uncommon and we had the freedom to explore the world! I feel bad for kids these days. Their parents are paranoid of stranger danger and they are getting obese for lack of exercise and wanting to play on their video games and computer. Haven't they got an imagination at all?

I'd take the 70s or 80s anyday over this age now. I hate this era we're in and I'm under 40!

too bad britain got worst than ever before

[endofday11]

Everything in this video is 100% correct. We just have to blame inept governents since the War ( both Labour and Conservative) who have misruled our dear Country.

Enoch Powell will be proved right. The streets will be running with blood before we return our Nation to its true christian roots. We have pandered too long to Islam and what you see dear friends is the result. No to Europe, No to Islam, and No to leftwing trash -aka BBC.

There will be a Civil War - but not in my lifetime :-).

@Andybabez good point but they would not be coming if there were not better jobs and opportunities and if the West lets its population shrink with a less than replacement level birth rate there is no other obvious solution here in the US many are screaming about the Mexican avalanche changing the face ot this nation but at least there's no danger of sharia law in the future this way so maybe we should be thankful, the future is coming at us faster than ever and ever changing I can only hope

@herringfly I believe that right now and even more so with the internet every view and trend of thought is found and I hope it will always be so I'd hate to have a "blasphemy law" that's in the news in Pakistan Don't think it couldn't happen I don't want to censor anybody left right fascist communist or the UVF or Sien Fein the KKK or the Black Muslims I think the censorship of Hitler or Stalin, who had radios made that only recieved Soviet stations would be the death knell of our freedom
