what else off the top of my head?

queen bohemian rhapsody, genesis, michael jackson thriller, dire straits money for nothing

some song like this ("it's a fine day, people washing windows")

opening the electricity boxes in lampboxes with lollypop sticks

DIY - building, making tables and dens (or was that just me? lol)

Sooty of course - and going to see them on tour numerous times!!!

Lego and then Lego Technics/Pneumatics came along!!! wow!!!

model aeroplanes that broke very easily made of styrofoam

(shall i go on or stop here???)

i might still have mine in the loft somewhere

those caps that golfers used to wear - visor-like

sleeping bags and camping in the garden

conkers and shoelaces

the need to find a secret hiding place / den

climbing anything and everything

tree swings and falling out of them

annoying the neighbours playing football and climbing ovre the fence

no childhood is complete without breaking a house window at some point with a football/cricket ball

go-carts

I played with My Little Ponies, but a friend of mine had Turtles and I would play with them at his house. Yes, I was a little girl and I liked Ninja Turtles. Go figure.

the ultimate warrior and hulk hogn ruled the WWF and the biggest thrill of it was wondering if any of them would keel over with breathing difficulties cos they were all fat (yup back when wrestling was a real mans sport lol) was actually in a pub on friday and they had old wrestling on (wrestlemania 6 or sumfin). it really took me back to when i was younger

born 1984 so i got the end of the 80s and the early 90s under my belt. loved the turtles, mc hammer was early 90s as were jazzy jeff and the fresh prince and yes i do remember the rap (did it at a party in december for some unknown drunken reason)

lol bout the shell suits and plastic tennis cap things. just remember people fashion always comes round sooner or later :-S

saved by the bell was class. bohemian rhapsody was released in 1975 so i dunno where ur getting that from tho it was rereleased for waynes world int he early 90s.

come on more 80s stuff, im feeling nostalgic

Oh those were the days - brings back memories Also painful ones, our fence had 5cm long thorns...

Plus always trying to find smugglers or secret doors and tunnels... Maybe too much Famous Five for me

Talking about clothing:

Jeans that would narrow towards ankles, and that would end just a tiny bit too high...

And also leather and other badges and things on jeans - I had Batman badges (neon, of course ) on one of mine...

Sticking your shirt in your trousers.

Suspenders were big at one point.

He-man, My Little Ponys, Nancy Drew, The Hardy Boys, Transformers, smurfs, MC Hammer... Amiga and C64... Been there, done that, miss it... Not to mention Inspector Gadget and the DJ Cat show on Sky

And the friendship bracelets we had for ALL our best friends And the slap-ons... Didn't even remember those, I had something like ten, wore them all the time. All in wonderful neon colours...

I guess I am a child of the 80s...
If those are the things that count, then so am I.

Oi-joi sitä kuusnepaa. Legendaarinen laitos.
