Steady, soon we we will all be on the sixties diet.

I think they haven't really considered the onslaught of 'fast-food' outlets, McDonalds, Kentucky fried Chicken, Pizza Hut,Indian/Chinese Takeaways a supermarket open 24hrs. I think even Yates' are full of fattening food.Or indeed how affluent society has become since then. :rolleyes:

One of the differences I noticed when I moved to Shrewsbury from the Black Country a few years go was how few seriously obese people there were walking about in this town, compared to somewhere like Dudley.

The only takeaway food in the 1960s, generally, was fish and chips. Though to be different, you could have a pie or a sausage with your chips! ;)
