What the hell?: Recollections of growing up - the trip to The Rom

In our modern, paranoid, digitally connected world are we safer or more at risk than we were back in the 70's? And what of that trip? Which took the scenic route; instead of going direct it went via Kilmarnock and Dumfries. Things I look at.
