crisps were 5p and pickled onion space invader corn snacks were yet to be invented, there were no brazillians (other than talented total football players) and no meant no (you hear me Greegsy?) and when you got a shot at yer nat king it meant marriage!

For me like the above said DBZ and pokemon were the muts nuts

 

Power Rangers, Are you afraid of the dark, The Demon Headmaster and Goosebumps where on the telly.

 

When I was wee what sticks out is, flying about on my bmx and almost killing myself in the process, wearing my monkey hat every day which * my mum off, finally being able to play Sweet Home Alabama the first song I learned on guitar, the first girl I had a crush on, £1 pocket money was enough for 2 packets of football stickers and shoot magazine, big bottles of maine lemonade, coca cola yo-yo's, bucky o'hare.

About all I can think off

 

used to go swimming and get a chip butty on the way home fo 2 quid

play hunt in the hills for about 5 hrs a night
if not hunt
football for 5 hrs a night
if not footy
shinty fo 5 hrs a night

spend a quid lunch money on 10 chomps
and neck them all before i even got on the bus for school

go out to play at 8am and return at 10 pm nackered and usually dehydrated

 

Can I just say lads you do still get irn bru bars but they're from wham or you get them up here went from 10p to 20 * cheek

 

Haha when I was wee the gameboy original was hi-tech. As was the sega gamegear!

I watched Thundercats/Saved by the Bell/ and teenage mutant ninja turtles endlessly.

All the kids went out and played footy from morning till night

Super soakers were the dugs!

 

some quality things there lads lol

 

when people used to say its calm instead of its sound.
or when it was a empty not a gaff.
when they done 29p cans.
when celtic never won the league until i was 9
when kappa tracksuits were all the rage
when the baldy with the fringe was in style .
when you could buy jolly ranchers.
i time were people phoned landlines to contact people a world without texting!!!!!.

 

when i was wee there was only 4 channels on the telly that had a sliding door that closed :icon_mrgreen:

they daft trousers with the buttons down the side were cool as *

wrestling was good,ultimate warrior,hulk hogan,the proper undertaker,jake the snake

a mobile phone was classed as an offensive weapon

 

2 bob crisps were 2 bob but were huge and you even got 5p bags.
20 Mojos for 10p
You could get 10 * aff the van for under a quid for your dad.
9p wee trial cans of Coke
Fitbaw stickers were 10p a pack.
Roll and fritter 20p
Rangers were utter pish and struggling to get fortnightly attendances of 10,000 at Ibrox. (That's why I think they use the word loyal in irony)
Celtic pipping Hearts for the league on goal difference on the last day with a 5-0 spanking of St Mirren at Love Street...:icon_mrgreen: Whilst Hearts blow it at Dundee losing 2-0
Surprised this hasn't been mentioned: Getting lifted over the turnstyle by my dad, and of course:
"Watty lift us err big man" translated Would you please lift me over the turnstyle kind sir so I may enjoy the game for free.

 

shell suits were cool then a few years later so were adidas popper pants, a few more outrageous fashions i can remember are naf naf, eclipse, trash and curly illuminous laces in your pump up trainers that flashed when u walked.

postman came before lunch, could get anything delivered by the milkman and if you wanted to play a game on your commodore 64 you put the game in to load before you went out only to find that it crashed halfway through when you come home.



oh and alex the kid was the business which was built into my master system.

 

i remember that lol
