Do do do you remember?

Nostalgia aint what it used to be, ADD YOUR MEMORIES OBJECTS STYLES ETC

While recuperating I have a little free time and realize what a host of memories we can share

A few I recall from the 70s

[Norton]

Hot pants, platform shoes, bell bottoms, and the car cassette player. Other stuff no clue.
Nice family pic 44.

While recuperating

sorry to hear that

Nostalgia

one of the lasting impressions of the 70s was nylon clothing, shirts, trousers and the misery they caused in summer - not tights before Dill chips in

[Bettyboo]

I remember tabs of acid - £10 for ten. Bargain.

Alas, it has been a long while...

[BLD]

I can still remember we had to walk all the way across the room just to change channel on the television and we only had 3 channels all in black n white.

That was my job. That and endlessly fucking about with the antenna. Different times

[malmomike77]

watching golf with dad on TV in black and white. They tee off and the camera pans through the white sky trying to track the white ball. Eventually the camera swings about and finds the ball against the grey background of the grass having had someone spot it for them.

That and endlessly fucking about with the antenna.

There was the antenna on top of the TV and antenna on the roof era too. Fuck knows how many people ended up in an emergency room after a sudden fall to Earth from up there, the last words they heard were "You nearly had it! Go back the other way again!!"

watching golf with dad on TV in black and white.

I've watched old golf footage in black and white and it's really hard on the eye, but I guess if that's all you'd ever seen it must have been brilliant! First thing I ever saw on a colour TV was a cricket match, the difference colour made to the experience was beyond enormous.

Other stuff no clue.

and the car cassette player

8 track

the last words they heard were "You nearly had it! Go back the other way again!!"

We had a rotor attached and could control from the TV room.

[Headworx]

^Rich family 'aye?

I remember the signal dropping out and the first thing to check was if their were any birds perched on the antennae, had a slingshot to deal with them if that was the case!

I knew Fish from Edinburgh in the late 80’s, he had not long left the band. He is a big Hibernian FC supporter. We would chat in the corporate hospitality area during half -time.

^ Spoil sport, could have been a fun run.

[Mendip]

Wow... that brings back some memories.

If we didn't have a gun we used to just sit on the pavement hitting the caps with a hammer... I grew up on an estate and this must have driven the neighbours mad.

I still remember hitting a whole roll of caps with a hammer and the bang made my ears ring for a week.

Good times!

[david44]

Great stuff guys keep 'em coming

I asked gf in Florida why folks went to drive ins

Of course unlike Europe most teenagers had or had access to a car

The plot was often irrelevant as the action was often in the car, cheaper than a motel with a horror slasher thriller thrown in
