Things that remind you of your younger days

[JLW]

What things standout from your days as a nipper that you don't see anymore?

The ones for me are:

Kids using coats for goalposts (I lost many a jacket forgetting about it like that)
A pair of footy boots hanging over a phone line 30ft in the air
Getting all my Christmas clothes from shops like Gansgear or All man kind.
Milk getting delivered on everyone's front door step each morning and on a Saturday there would always be fresh orange.
