Modern day police are - generally - useless.
Respect for the Royal family.

Now : Send in your ideas and I shall add them here for all to read.
--------------------------------------------
1 - Bugs on windscreen, when riding as a child and later as a young adult driver, you always had to clean bugs off of the windscreen or motorcycle helmet after every drive.
2 - Small boxes of matches and match books. You used to be able to buy small boxes of matches with about 25 matches in them. You also used to get books of matches from hotels & pubs as free gifts advertising their venue. You can buy matches in supermarkets now but they are either the 'jumbo' ones for lighting barbeques or candles, or large boxes of 'cook's' matches with about 350 matches in them. Instead you are expected to but a disposable lighter, not very eco friendly.
3 - High tea with extended family, best china put out, bread and jam, cold meats and salad, trifle and cakes!! gallons of tea served from large china teapots and milk jugs. Aunties' determined to be seen to be putting on the 'best spread.'
