Nostalgic...

Many people in the UK are nostalgic about the past - and, whether it's for proper music stars, sense of community spirit, and many other things.

The study shows many over-50s consider the old days to be better because people were more patient, slower pace of life, family ate around the dinner table and face-to-face conversations.

Others miss the fact that the price of gas and petrol was lower, university education was free and property prices were more affordable

Researchers found that eight in 10 people in this age group are often nostalgic for the past, and two thirds admit they think of their early years through rose-tinted glasses.

Majority believe that developments in technology have improved people's lives for the better,  and minority think social media has worked to make people happier.

Those were the days.
