Cars had Lucas ignition, starting and charging systems and kept breaking down. Not all husbands were like that. My dad wasn't. And cars with Lucas switches. They were real cars, you had to actually drive them, with muscles. Not fingertip auto everything poncy things like now. And it taught you how to maintain them. Unlike now. |

| 1178264 | 2011-02-16 02:37:00 | I arrived in NZ in 1965 Went to the movies and had to stand up for God Save The Queen before they played the movie. Tip Top Jelly tips were much bigger ! May Dad bought a new car each year (Ford escort) and traded it in for more than he paid for it each year. (You needed overseas funds to buy a new car) To send money overseas you had to buy British Postal Notes max 1 pound a ta time. |
