you put fuel in your car and went over the amount by 1p, the guy in the shop said don't worry.

woods were made of wood.

golf shoes had those flappy things over the laces and were made of rubber.

Snickers were called Marathons.
 
When.......

Starburst were called Opal Fruits.

When petrol was under 70p a litre as I'd just passed my test and thought it was expensive but compared to now Bargain!

Global Hyper Colour t-shirts were cool.
 
.... i really thought Larry Grayson had a friend called Everard.
Vesta chicken supreme was the height of sophistication.
Power cuts were great fun, and platform shoes were a great look with short trousers :o
 
...and McCowan’s Highland Toffee penny chews (green wrapper) had a soft toffee covering to the hard centre. I always nibbled off the soft covering before eating the chewy bit (which tended to be excellent at removing fillings)

The chocolate covered McCowans was even better.
I also loved Ross's puff candy and mint puff candy.

The chocolate ones were good - I'd forgotten about them. And Ross's puff candy (bars?) - bite, snap and crunch - and sore teeth due to the sugar!!! Sometime got a chewy bit in the middle.

And let's not start on Creamola Foam - fizzzzzzzz

Hogan......don't tell me they fobbed you off with the old stock?

I remember when rugby shorts had pockets for your handkerchief.
