    Not nostalgia particularly, but it was a blast from the past when the other day I found one of those old ring-pull tabs that used to be on drink cans. Also called ‘pull-tabs’ I think. Not sure when they were phased out in Aus, but in the UK they were mostly gone by the late 80s and replaced by the ‘stay-tab’ we all know today. The ring-pulls were sharp and dangerous and were littered a lot, so I certainly don’t miss them!
