Lorry drivers.
Conventional till operators.
Possibly printers (as in the job role)
All gone or at the very least in similar numbers to the amount of Coopers, Blacksmiths and Coalmen that you have working today.

no more pubs as drinking indoors is the cheapest form of getting rat arsed
no more doctors because no one wants to work in the current state of affairs
no more stroke or A and E units |

"There won't be many shops on our streets. In time there will be takeaways, barbers, nail bars and not much else on our high streets. "
That will never happen, we'll always have a fine selection of independent shops and there's no way a town will allow their high street to have 12 barbers, 14 takeaways, 7 beauty salons, 8 charity shops Cough cough |

Just look at how many shops have already closed. With my job I travel all over the UK to shops and whenever I go back, there are more shops closed down, because they can't compete with the Internet. |

It was a joke, they're already as you'll say they'll be in 20 years.
Some high streets are truly demoralising |

To be fair to the Russians if they'd had a curry as bad as I did at the "ruby something" they would have nuked it but I think the man in the kitchen already had |

"TV's
It'll be projected images. "
thats far too 20th century- it'll be immersive neural transmission by then, clip on a small headset and get the images transmitted into your brain, bypassing your exterior senses |

Meat production will be down, as will consumption, as we work to prevent greater catastrophic global heating levels.
Perhaps we'll return to a rationing type system for many things, as uncontrolled market forces, where the masses can have anything they want, are restrained.
People have less disposable income, helping the high street decline more.
No one buys electric fires etc, as they are so energy inefficient. |

Hopefully not my beloved internal combustion engines, would be a shame not to enjoy my beetle!
I'd hate to see CD's go too, although expect it!
Also I'm quite scared that steam trains could be disappearing by then too... Call me old fashioned but train travel can be quite the romance |

Hopefully our godawful education system will be replaced by something that actually teaches people how to function in the 21st century instead of the 18th century |

Will we still be using Fab Swingers in this format on these types of devices?
Or will it evolve into something very different?
