Living in the past

I wouldn't miss the traffic that we have to suffer now.

I think one of the things it's easy to forget [is that] the plumbing wasn't totally brilliant and hygiene was a bit iffy. They were pretty good at it, but food hygiene, I think, is pretty important.

My experience [of the past] is mainly through watching movies and TV, so I guess it's not real anyway. I suppose on the movies we get the sanitised version really. I'm happy where I am.
