Thumbing.......a dead tradition

[astfgyl]

Did you ever find out where they got all those baters?

I presume they have some fella with a clip board and measuring tape that goes door to door. If only I had said that back then.

Nowadays if  I thought my kids were going to try out hitching a lift I'd lose my mind.

Not a fucking hope I'd let my kids out thumbing I'd kill them if I caught them at it. Funnily enough my own parents never minded me at it at all bar the mother saying the odd bit about watching out for quarehawks. Goes back to my first post here - the trust has gone for whatever reason
