A night out was certainly more edgey back then. Guaranteed to see bother on a Friday night out down the town whereas now hardlys ever.

Never went out with out seeing a fight or some sort of aggro happening. Every fucker just was out looking for a windmill. High street and the bars around that way were terrible for it.

Mobile phones have made it easier for the police to catch people windmilling these days.
 
Music was considerably better in the 80s and 90s.

More bother then, but you're more likely to be stabbed now imo.

Kids are absolutely no bother compared to back then .I think that’s mainly due to the rise of gaming /social media which has made them into zombies that you can’t get out their bedrooms .I suppose it’s better than ram raiding and TWOC’ing like kids used to do

In big cities yes ,places like sunderland I’d say not .The odd stabbing happened years ago aswell.

ITT: People who grew up in the 80s and 90s who think the 80s and 90s were the best decades.

They weren’t. You only think they were because that’s your nostalgia.

I remember the early nineties craze of collecting car badges. Every fucker turned up to school with a butter knife from their mams kitchen draw with the sole purpose of prising off as many badges as humanly possible over lunch break

Hopping over the metal gates at vauxies to get the grolch bottle tops which we then placed on our trainers for some bizarre reason. Happy days

I was born in 94. Feel like kids born around the same time as I was were the last who spent all their summer holidays playing out in the street/park in their primary school/early comp years. Magic like thinking back.

Then again, with the likes of club 18-30 for instance and all that recently being scrapped I also feel like people who were born early/late 90s were the ones who were the last of the drinkers and party goers. Millennials/kids who are now late teens seem to view drinking and going out as generally uncool it seems.
 
born in 64, did my early drinking, womanising, fighting etc. around 80 to 82...great times.
First car a morris marina with big fuk off wheels and power bulge on the bonnet, graduated to a knackered ford capri...loved the music, the outlok and life in general as a late teenager early 80's.
Mullet haircuts and taches...big wooly jumpers tucked into peg trousers with pod shoes.
pubs rammed on a weekend, togos night club in Chester, the Tube on the telly pre drinking on a Friday.
great times...
