You youngsters - no idea - Smiths crisps (with a twist of paper holding the salt) were 3d a pack.
6d came years later.
The 1st decimal coins were trialled in 1849.
The 2/- piece (florin) was actually inscribed "One Florin One Tenth Of A Pound" so there was no confusion over its value.

Errrm looks more like a fancy dress costume to me.

Ironically the “He-Man” costume does bear more than a passing resemblance to a former US Olympic hero (but apparently not an athlete), in his 1976 pomp!
Are you still pretending anybody actually watches runners? There’s a reason those events are only attended by the runners’ families. LOLErrrm looks more like a fancy dress costume to me.

(three penny worth of crisps is nowadays too expensive for this OAP)
Actually now you come to mention it in do remember those. They were smiths crisps. I remember getting a voucher to get a free packet of golden wonder crisps ready salted no blue paper twist. A revelation! AND they did cheese and onion too! About 1965?
Sometimes you'd get two paper twists of salt or non at all with the smiths.
Alan you are only two years older than me.. but thanks for calling me a youngster. Always nice to get a compliment.

Ahhh yes! I remember izal tracing paper. It was brilliant for tracing stuff.. nowadays we have to buy the real thing.Aah, the good old days.
No. It has the same effect as using a plastic bag for its intended purpose. Possibly the manufacturer didn't want the expense of research and development.
Glossy on one side?
I remember those during my travels in the Eastern Block. There was a trick to them, you had do vigorously scrunch it up several times.
I suspect it was the paper making tech in those days.

It defies imagination how a question on how much load is a sensible level for women to carry when trekking can descend to comparing and reminiscing about old toilet paper; I think this thread has gong down the pan
