    However, if you’d shown me an iPad, I’d have wanted one.. 🙂

    Yes, that’s what most people forget when they deride kids these days for being sat in front of their PS3 etc.

    If I’d have had that option, I probably wouldn’t have left the house either.

    Very good that. I was born in 81 but still everything mentioned resonates.

    Come on! Wind up Evil Knievil and a Raleigh Burner – trumps an iPad for me.

    I remember all of that. Even the ‘pope’ and his speedboat 😆

    Happy days!

    It’s even better when you mute it and play Paul Hardcastle’s 19 over the top of it.

    Nun nun nuna 19.. 😀

    I was sat in front of my Oric 1 and later Atari ST for many many hours. Now I’m a well paid IT professional.. and I like outdoor sports too 🙂

    scary…Hartley Hare.

    Agreed. He was an unkempt psycho nutjob that was clearly necking a couple of grams of speed on an hourly basis. Bagpuss was a secret psycho, too…

    Hartley hare and Pipkins were excellent.
    Some of Rupert the bears friends were scary!

    Shouldn’t this be on VHS, not YouTube?
    70’s were a shit decade I thought. Life was a lot better last couple of decades- well, till the last 4 or 5 years , anyway.

    I always thought Hartley Hare was more of a pervert than a speed freak, only in the Jimmy Saville era could Hartley Hare be considered suitable children’s entertainer 😯

    Paul Hardcastle – 19

    Can you imagine today’s day time tracks on radio 1 getting played 30 years from now and sounding as fresh?!

    The memory of ol’ Tommy Cooper popping his clogs on live tv makes me a bit sad. I still remember it quite clearly – the crowd laughing him off. Quite shocking when they returned from the ads and Tarby broke the news.

    Took its toll on Jimmy T, though…
