I'm just wondering why on Earth someone has meticulously scanned in pages from a 1985 Argos catalogue. 😯
Was it you?
Dunno but we had item 20, the funny looking door chime, in my parents house!!
Never had a Sodastream, though, much to my disappointment...
Rachel
we had a Sodastream
you can fizz up a surprising amount of liquids.... milk for example.
Was it you?
no sir!.. i've got more important things to do with my time.. Like posting on here everyday 🙂
Hair!
my mum used to have that haircut emsz... are you taking the **** out of my mum?! 😯
I do like the way she's trying to look at her own ear
i had that doorbell thing too.
bing bong
We have exactly the same door chime now 8)

Heh! That's different, it's 'constructive'. 😀
No I don't mind; it's fun to see stuff like this.
I quite fancy that lady in the headphones. 😳
Is it Philconsequence's mum? If one of my mates had had a mum like that, I would've popped round their house a lot just to stare longingly at her. 🙁
my mum was much much hotter 😆
dont worry emsz its hilarious hair... one day in the future when there's no such thing as libraries and everythings computers... i hope they delete the 80s from the records.
Phil my mum was 19 in 1985 she probably had that hair style too. Classy 😀
+1 for that door bell
I'd like to nominate trickydisco's post in the STW link of the year awards.

Ahh sodastream, the Tassimo of the 80s.
Those cassette players are too moderne and compact though. My first "walkman" in the 80s to four HP4 batteries, was the size and shape of a car stereo and had a shoulder strap.
'Get busy with the fizzy'
I had a windmill for a garden that was a bloke chopping wood and the more wind the faster he chopped wood. There may have been a well involved too. Did anyone have one of those?
Just had a look at tazzy's link to the flicker page. Black and White tellys!! I've never watched a black and White telly!
Hmm C64..

Nah - try adding extra fizz to a can of coke - that's where the fun is at

And I was in Argos a couple of weeks ago and there was a big display selling Sodastream still.
Hair!
There used to be hair in all sorts of places in 1985, where there isn't any now.

1985? Bit of a late starter weren't you? 😯
One of my first jobs was spray-painting that rectangular grey fascia panel on them Triton Showers. Literally thousands of the bloody things. For £42.50 a week.
They still [url= http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Product/partNumber/8427221/Trail/searchtext%3ESODASTREAM.htm ]sell[/url] them now 😯
Vodka through a sodastream - easy to sneak into the school disco as lemonade!!

more to the point, your first ****, and you were already on porn? as a early teen, I just had to look at my cock and it'd go off..

ZOMG, the portable TV I had my Speccy hooked up to as well. Pye 2040, top left of the first TV page. Only threw it out last year.
All my mates had the Ferguson on the next page.
Check out the Sun Pearl collection. Argh, my eyes.
Oooohh, its a pen and a watch - I want one.

I guess that's what I meant! I think I'd tried an Oric and an Acorn Electron by then, both were crap! Wish I'd got a BBC 🙁 actually I'd probably still be a nerd if I had, instead of being supercool 😎
emsz - MemberPhil my mum was 19 in 1985 she probably had that hair style too. Classy 😀
How to make people feel old eh! I'm older than your mum, I think I went out with a fair few girls with that hair style... I even married one 😉
That's the new-upstart Sinclair Colour Spectrum that is.
You lot are thinking of ZX81s, or maybe even the ZX80.
