If I say Catweazle or The Brigadier, will that get me points RD?

You played out till all hours your mum would call you in for your tea and you'd run in and have it and then go round your mate's and have another tea there and we all had choppers apart from those who couldn't afford a chopper and had one of those shit ones spangles and then Tomorrow's World before Top of the Pops and dad would be all like what's this shit and there was no central heating and the teachers would lock you in the cupboard and make the girls stand on their heads so they could see their pants and spangles and it all ended the day Danny Rideout got his head kicked in by some big boys round the back of the Arcade.

[Salsaboy]

And Spangles too!

You're right... make it a can of Colt45 and ten No.6... ah go on, gi's a barley wine and blackcurrant chaser.

I spent so much time in the cupboard that I actually developed romantic fantasy scenarios about what me and Joanna Hufton would do if we were both in there together. They mostly involved me being cool.

[woodrot]

My mother always warned me about strange men and coached me on evasion tactics. How I laughed. Now the whole world seems to have been party to mass noncery in the 70/80s, it seems she was right all along.

I love the 70's cos that's when I was a teenager, 70's soul/funk/reggae music was at its best, life was simpler as I lived at home with no ties, loads of foreign holidays with tens of mates, and had a fcuking great time. What more can a lad ask for?

[red devil]

[aquarius moon]

Only just seen this thread.

The seventies were brill!

I left school & started working in Woolworths on the Pick n'Mix counter.

Couldn't wait til I was 18 so that I could run my own Freemans catalogue!

[woodrot]

the 70s were full of noncery it would seem

[lameduck]

why did they put chalk in dog food

[Huguenot]

They didn't put chalk in, the white was calcium from bonemeal.

There's much less bonemeal in animal feed these days because of fears that nerve tissue inside bones may carry prions - the proteins thought to be behind variant Creutfeld Jacob Disease (vCJD), mad cow disease and scrapie.

[lameduck]

thankyou i thought it was to bulk it out

[red devil]

We had proper Woodsmen in the 70's...and 12ft bears...hardcore!
