    Lol, I just posted a slightly different one elsewhere, and I said no to 3 of those ones : Writing M.A.S.H. notes, You knew all the characters names and their life stories on "Saved By The Bell". and You remember eating Warheads.


    Can't be bothered reading through those ones ^ as they're mostly the same

    I used to love pogs!!! I used to collect all the groovy slammers with jagged edges! They got banned at our school, as EVERY kid would play them at dinnertime, and the teachers argued that none of us were getting any excercise so we were all really hyper in the afternoon!

    Anybody remember jelly shoes? With the bits of glitter in them? I always wanted a pair but never got any!

    I used to always wear sweater shop jumpers too (and sloppy joe jumpers), that were a thousand time too big for me!!!
    And the fluorescent orange and green cycling sorts and vest tops with spice girls on them? I ROCKED!

    *feels distinctly old*

    Whilst I remember a lot of these things, it's more a case of remembering other 'younger' people being into them.

    I'm off to book my SAGA holiday now ....

    Do I remember Jelly shoes? Fucked loved them! Had a pair in every colour, although I do remember them rubbing and hurting my feet :crying: but didn't stop me wearing them. Used to get them from woolies, they might still do em, you never know!

    Surely we aren't the only two who were involved with the jelly shoes craze, or mabye we are the only two who are openly admitting it!

    I was going to say, Button Moon was late 80's! Still remember it though, classic!

    I had jelly shoes!! Silver ones with glitter inside, used to think I was the coolest girl in my pink cycling shorts and jelly shoes haha! I used to get up early for Live and Kicking, I even remember to this day crying when Andy Peters and Emma Forbes quit the show in about '96. Good times.

    I used to be a massive TV addict. Fun House, Finders keepers,out of tune,round the twist,demon headmaster,incredible games(I've never known anyone else to remember that show?!),Spatz(again,no one I know remembers that :() ooooh and Mike and Angelo, friggin loved that show!

    I'm sure more will come back to me! :)

    Picked Onion Space Raiders


    Damn they were good, do they still make Space Raiders? Cheap crisps that kinda reminded me of cardboard, but still damn good.
