And just to prove it, here are some golden moments from when you shared your recollections on stories we published in recent years.
You had your say on everything from the Lynn Street market to the Crossways Hotel which was great at putting on Christmas dinners.
So let’s take a trip down Memory Lane to re-live what you had to say.
1. Lynn Street market
We asked for your Lynn Street market memories in 2017 and corned beef slices were top of the list.
One reader remembered: "Cornbeef slice, chips, gravy every Saturday" and another loved the "smell of the toffee apples x." Photo: hm
