I loved my Harrington jacket with my name on the back! Twilight Teaser lipstick that made your lips look blue 😫 Watching the Tomorrow People on TV. Using my CB radio! Love all the nostalgia on this thread 😍

Ooh going to the shop with your glass bottles and spending the 10p on a 10p mix, anyone remember fizz bombs & germoline bubbly that you used to get the tatoos in?
I also drank blastaways, MD20/20, Thunderbirds, Cherry B & babycham, oh & Merrydown cider
Had a couple of shell suits & as we called them ski pants rather than stirrup pants dunno why Jelly bag shoes and bag, Farah pants & Adidas kick trainers, rahrah skirt, fame suit with legwarmers, black & white stripy socks, pinstriped jeans
Holly Hobbie bedding, I also had a Sindy house and horse, even though I wanted the Barbie one cause hers had a lift that went up the side! Girls World, her hair all fell out when I crimped it, ruined my crimpers as well, ooh anyone remember them?!
My Mum treated me to the proper white leather rollerboots for my birthday, I really did think I was the beesknees in them, especially when I had done pompoms for in the laces
As for Sweet Valley High, if our Reece had been a girl, he was going to be called Jessica Elizabeth

I loved monkey magic! Always trying to work out if trippitarka (spelling!?) was a boy or a girl and never quite understanding how a mountain could have a poo in the opening titles. Spending playtime running about pretending to be monkey, waving our fingers infront of our mouths to call his cloud to ride on (good lord. It sounds like I've been taking something illegal! ) 😂

I'm sure I read somewhere recently that they were remaking monkey for Netflix , used to watch the flumps... this winter bobble hats seemed very fashionable and there were a group of mums in school yard all with them on ... in my head I thought they were the flumps 😂😂😂.
There wasn't much kids tv on in an evening when I was little ( kind of wish it was like that now with all the pap my youngest watches ) but I used to love flumps, Ivor the engine and my favourite was Willo the wisp with evil Edna lol

Ah I adored the Flumps plus Bod and Jamie and the magic torch. Then when my sister was little it was Button Moon
