I remember the time when Sundays was strictly a church & rest day. No shops or supermarkets would be open. It literally was the most chilled day of rhe week.

As was this. The key was to get the disk as far down the spindle as possible so you could undercut the other players. The double knockouts rawked

These were stupid. The players usually ended up all in one corner or just spinning in a circle

These were stupid. The players usually ended up all in one corner or just spinning in a circle

which is why no one ever played a game. after spending 5 mins setting it up for a play, then watching them spin in circles for 3 mins...you gave up and went looking for firecrackers to blow the players up with.

I was genuinely surprised to learn she was lesbian.

I was genuinely surprised to learn she was lesbian.

I watched her on late night TV as a teen hoping for a tit to pop out......never did .
I remember Playdoh......yellow plasticky stuff in a can one could mould into something recognizable to impress your school friends, the dirt from our grubby hands turning it brown. I still remember the smell.......probably full of carcinagens!!

@Anastasia1999 Do you remember this? The best German entry of all time. Period!

I used to sing it a lot, back then.

Ein bisschen Frieden, ein bisschen Sonne
Für diese Erde, auf der wir wohnen.
Ein bisschen Frieden, ein bisschen Freude,
Ein bisschen Wärme, das wünsch' ich mir.
