Everyone mention one thing they can't get anymore which they miss.
And - nice cheese straw crisps of a certain variety whose name I forget but I've not seen in thirty years.

Nostalgia isn't as good as it used to be, is it?

I forget what I'm nostalgic about until it comes up.
I think maybe summer holidays. Long ones where there was no work or school. Can't get one of those anymore.

I can't say I necessarily miss MY mum's cooking but that said I can still sample it sometimes. Huggles Jayme.
BTW you were in my dream last night.

BTW you were in my dream last night. Do I need to apologize for anything?

Steam trains, real ones that travelled at 90mph and ran on tracks that made a clickety click sound.
There are quite a few things I am definitely not nostalgic about, such as cod liver oil, ox tongue and tripe.

Cod liver oil always sounded dreadful to me. The idea of just eating a tablespoon of any sort of oil, on it's own, is rather hideious.

It was part liquid and part congealed gel at the tip of the teaspoon that was kept with the bottle for its sole use.

That does sound really disgusting. Can't really think of anything I'm nostalgic about at the moment.

Can you be nostalgic for something you still get to experience?

"In Kyoto, hearing the cuckoo, I long for Kyoto."
One of my favourite poems by Basho.

I can't even remember the dream that Jayme was in now I shall have to invite her into my next one. They tend to stay with me for a day or so and then leave

O, I just engaged in some acute nostalgia here a couple days back. I made myself some potato soup with ham and 'rivels', just like my mother made it for me on cold winters' days. It was a delightful sashay down memory lane. Tasty, too.
And, since so much of commercial television has become so degraded, there are now several broadcast channels which focus upon rerunning programming from previous decades. Nostalgia at the flick of a dial. I just wonder why so many wax nostalgic about so much crud.
