    Space Raiders cost 10p.

    Getting home from school to watch Nickelodeon was the highlight of the day.

    The Beano was 40p.

    Irn Bru bars were on sale.

    I had a bowl cut. :56:

    What about you?
     
  2. Pokemon was the *.
     
    Celtic were in a European final
     
  3. When I was wee you could buy McGowans toffee chews for 1/2p. There were only 3 stations on the telly and they were only on for 14 hours a day. You could buy a million Beanos for 40p. Irn Bru was made in Scotland from girders, and I had a bowl cut.
     
  4. gameboy colour was hi-tech.

    you only got to see * when you found an old magazine in a hedge.

    me and all my mates had a ferret and went ferreting.

    fitba tops were dire and could probably bring on seizures and fits (the 90s)

    huns were just as thick and ugly as they are now

  11. I didn't know what walkin was. I ran everywhere. I was like Forrest Gump. Spangles, whatever happened to Spangles. My mum used to call me and my brother in for dinner. We'd have to stop our game of headie two touch at 22 - 17, for a quick food break, before playin on to about 50. Morecambe and Wise were the biggest draw on Saturday night telly, yet inexplicably, looking back on it, they used to share a bed. Go figure!
     
  12. Dragon Ball Z was awesome. Good shout mollinz.
     
  13. Wrestling was awesome. Shawn Michaels, Ultimate Warrior, Honky Tonk Man, Austin, The Rock etc. Used to stay up EVERY Monday night for RAW.

    Celtic were feeling the effects of financial issues, whilst Rangers were signing great players from England and effectively buying the league title every single season. Wim Jansen came in, signed Larsson and stopped the 10.

    Those were the days :shamrock:
     
  14. Lemon and Lime Tangy bars, Wham Bars, Drum sticks, Bon bons, they silver wrapped chocolate balls, Kola Cubes, Midget Gems, Alphabet letters, Fruit Salads (Used tae be raging when the tally only had Black Jacks left)

    * sake man am getting depressed here. :56:
     
  15. Black Jacks are amazing! You're such a philistine.
     
  16. Cola cubes and black jacks.:icon_mrgreen:
