I laughed at your mum and the Ovaltine - I think my dad still has a recording of some radio show where halfway through, you can hear screaming and then 5 year old me shouting "HE PULLED MY HAAAAIR!".<br /><br />We definitely had the best cartoons in the 80s I think... I must see if i can find some of them on youtube :-)Saraphicnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3219893403749598598.post-71552824334821513822011-03-13T20:06:38.338+00:002011-03-13T20:06:38.338+00:00Secret Squirrel - That's a weird one.

I see the kids on the streets, hanging by bus stops and outside shops and they just sound awful. Too streetwise and too 'grown up' though of course they're not. But then again, i did ok. I wasn't cool at all but somehow got by unbullied and got in with the 'cool kids'. Who knows? How do you think you'd get on?<br /><br />Linda - Do you remember putting sellotape over the gap on cassettes so that you could re record on them? <br />I think I'm using this blog as a sort of time capsule! I was looking at ebay the other day and saw vintage sindy furniture, that made me wish I had saved stuff...to be honest, I go a bit mental about twice a year (mum says I go through stuff like a tornedo) and just throw stuff out - brutal really.debhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04676106481922716013noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3219893403749598598.post-38772230229602242302011-03-13T11:10:31.236+00:002011-03-13T11:10:31.236+00:00Keep some things in a box like a time capsule and ...Keep some things in a box like a time capsule and look at them in ten years. It will be so surreal. <br /><br />I remember my first Sony Walkman. Cassette tapes and having to wind the tape on with a pencil when it got caught in the walkman. I still have the walkman rattling around somewhere. I don't throw much out.lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05392205573326695683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3219893403749598598.post-33960541469948916642011-03-13T07:37:53.471+00:002011-03-13T07:37:53.471+00:00I do love reading your posts, you somehow just man...I do love reading your posts, you somehow just manage to brighten my day!!<br /><br />I have just been sitting here, thinking about how my sister and I used to record the Top 40 every week, so we had a constant supply of up to date tunes!! I was about 7 I think... exactly same thing "shhhh I'm recording the charts" lol!<br /><br />Life was much simpler when we were children, I reckon it must be quite hard being a child in this era... they have so many pressures to deal with... I don't remember even wearing make up until I was 16!! My God these days they're trowling on at about 7 ( girls mostly)<br /><br />My thought for the day, is how different do you think your life would be if we had been born 30ish years later? I wonder what we would have become of us??Secret Squirrelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00089810314080669752noreply@blogger.com
