Two years ago, I ditched any semblance of cheesy dating apps in favor of meeting the love of my life organically, like in the olden days.

Prince Harry said that in the "olden days" parents always knew what their children were up to, as long as they were at home.

In the olden days, writers were taught to put the mark –30– at the bottom of a story to indicate the end.

"Surfing has taught me that in the olden days they say that girls cannot surf, only boys. Now I know that whatever a man can do, a woman can do better!"

It’s an unfortunate thing to say but it was like in the olden days when if you have two female characters, they had to have two different hair colors in case people got confused as to which one is which.
