    I’m a baby boomer, Christmas in the 50’s & 60’s was the best time of the year.
    To wake up and find a new doll or a bicycle 🧸 🎄🚴🏼‍♀️🥁🎁💌 🤶🏽 🛍 ⛪️ . The best childhood ever. Those were the days my friend.

    I was born in London the day after Christmas 1955. So, that's what it looked like. 😀

    Good old days
    Less technology, people were more simple and kind, free from greed, lust like nowadays.
    Stay bless all

      I hate to break it to you, but people have always been equally kind and unkind, equally full of greed and generosity and lust. We all view the past through rose colored glasses of nostalgia because we remember the good things and not the bad.

      @@mccuenoirfilms I can't imagine many of these people pushing, shoving and fighting over items nor shops having to have security like they do today I think is what was meant.

    Poor kids back then... no computers, iPads or Playstations... only wooden and tin toys.
    And homemade clothes as present of course, the disappointment!
