You want Irish Nostalgia how about Jack Charlton. Nothing gets more nostalgic then seeing the best Irish manager in history grace our good land's team.

+1 for the killing tiny little red spiders - we used call them bloodsuckers. There used be competitions to see who could squish the most before the end of lunchtime.
+1 for the white dog poo too - my sister thought it came from white dogs when she was really small!

Fake Lilt that came in really small bottles and cost 25p.
Everyone walking to school - nobody got a lift back then.
