What did your childhood living room have that your current living room doesn't?

A 9kW electric fire connected via a 13a plug, but nobody could tell it was burning the wall socket out due to the 60-100 fags a day my parents got through. 
No wonder I can’t bloody smell

or taste anything these days. 

A drinks cabinet, radiogram, sideboard...

Gas fire to suplement the poor central heating in a cold uninsulated house meaning sometimes it was the only room that was warm.

 

A valve radio and a gramophone.

 

Carpet on the floor that nearly fitted the room.

 

A 100W light bulb.

A VCR with a wired remote...

 

To this day my Dad doesn't know that we used to swing it round and use it as a skipping rope!

Did you grow up in a stately home?

 

 

My parents! When I look back and think to myself how they dealt with everything and now I’m left dealing with all kinds of crap 

Coal fire.

Parquet floor.

Curtains.

Record player.

Wine rack.

Dog.

Budgie.
