6 OTHER THINGS THEY SHOULD BRING BACK

This week McDonald's made a half hearted attempt to keep the Georgie Pie brand alive by announcing their plans to start serving a mince and cheese version at outlets in Auckland and Hamilton. This got me feeling nostalgic for a few other things too...

1: Europa Service Stations. I don't know if I ever stopped for petrol at one, but that 2 minute "Travelling On" TV commercial starring Midge Marsden was epic.

2: Fawlty Towers. Universally accepted as the funniest comedy of all time, 12 episodes was nowhere NEAR enough.

3: The Americas Cup. Admittedly they're not trying to bring this back from the past, just San Francisco, but still, it'd be nice to see it again.

4: 3 Weeks Annual Leave. When they changed it to 4 weeks I was already ON 4 weeks. Now I only get the same time off as everyone else. Completely unacceptable.

5: Summer. Remember that whole hot, no-rain thing that went on for ages a few weeks ago. That was really popular. (Except with farmers obviously) Can we have that again please?

6: Georgie Pie. Come on McD's! One overpriced pie in the most boring flavour on the menu? If you're going to bring them back, bring them ALL back. Especially the oh-so-exotic Mexican. Olé!
