We were talking about our "days". So this means we are certainly old.
I told the story of how I had taken 10 paise from my grand mother for a post card. Those days my parents were in Agra and me and my sister were staying with our grand mother. I had taken 10 paise for the post card and bought a candy and ate it.
My friend told how their uncle would tell all the children to remove weeds from the fields twice, if they want to go to movies - two of them on the same day. And the children would happily oblige.
And we would go to the sports day with lot of eagerness because we get to eat 5 paise ice-candy. We will not buy milk ice-candy because that was 25 paise.
My another friend had given 10 paise to her aunt for safe guard. And she would repeatedly ask her aunt "When will you buy me a frock with the money I gave you". Of course, even in those days, one could not buy a frock for 10 paise. But thus was our innocence.
