It's easy to forget how things used to be.

Something to shout about? Some things don't change...

GoHemel Comment
It seems like a lifetime ago and yet just like yesterday. I wonder how many people can still remember Hemel as it used to be. It's easy to forget how quickly things change. Is it just through the rosy tint of nostalgia that Hemel appears so much cleaner, calmer and better in the seventies? What do you think? We'd love to hear your views, recollections and opinions.
