Re: Saturday Night

Hi

Most definitely, the Mums and littlies are here, decorum rules.

The last time it was just the unmarried 20 and 30 year olds, a very different proposition.

No naked flashing tonight or in the morning.

Re: Saturday Night

Still out every Saturday night. Local social clubs.
Bingo.
Singers.
Beer.
A bit traditional northern type of places but we try to support them as much as we can.
Use it or lose it.

Re: Saturday Night

Have not been out on a Saturday in years, now spend my time with TV remote in hand trying to find something vaguely watchable and failing miserably.

Re: Saturday Night

Every night is Saturday night in NYC.

Probably not as big as the smile, back in the day.

Oh I don't know, memories are very precious Spitty.

Re: Saturday Night

Of course they are, more so if one was the originator, not the recipient.

Re: Saturday Night

I remember the era when Saturday night was for many people a night in front of the telly. There was always a prime Saturday show ranging from Brucie's Generation Game to other bit hitters. A take-away and TV was the defacto routine for many.

Then things seemed to change and we lost many of our great comedians and presenters and the Saturday night show era seemed to disappear.

I think then we were more inclined to go out for meals as a treat. Venues varied as did the friends and family members we would go out with.

Then came the era of Reality TV and suddenly we had Pop Idol and Fame Academy, a style of shows we hadn't seen before. They were engaging when they first started as most new things are.

Those shows gave way to X-Factor and then BGT which dominated for many years.

These days we don't go out very often. I prefer to cook my own good healthy meals and only very occasionally have a take-away. We get plenty of "meals out" when we go on hols cruising.

These days I find Saturday nights a little boring. There just isn't the quality of Saturday Night TV any more. More likely we will watch a film that we have pre-recorded or binge watch a DVD box set.

I guess much depends on the time of year too. In warm summer balmy nights we might well sit out the back on the decking with a lit chimenea gazing at the stars.
