    Are we the last generation to have always worn our best clothes on Sunday. Most of my Sundays now are spent out walking or going for a cycle so it's leggings and sweatshirts for me.
    As a kid I remember my Dad polishing all of our shoes on Saturday night. Shiny shoes, best white socks and newest dress all for Sunday mass and whatever followed. This could be anything from visiting relatives/drives in the country/trips to the park or beach. Happy memories but not exactly dressed for climbing trees or running around the park !

    Gwad yeah, and if you were caught kicking a football with your good shoes on you were dead. Does the phrase "can you leave it be for one day at least" ring a bell , of course the other days your were supposed to study. Yes Sundays were a constant day of mindgames between the mother and my self.

    'Can you not leave it for one day' has me LOL. It brought back memories of my Mother shouting at me as I tried to get my bike out of the garage on Sundays. Can't blame her really because I'd have used the toes of my good shoes as the brakes :D:D
