    Supercans of Coke.
    Glass bottles of coke, and the 10p for bringing them back.
    Green dublin buses.
    Arcade games of the 80s (Outrun & Operation Wolf were my favourites)
    Days of not having to work for a living

    7p orange sparklers the best ice pops ever.
    dungarees they used be so cool.
    the proper TMNT and DJ cat (when sky1 used be free)

    Don't remember Sky One ever being free.

    It was removed from Cablelinks service for a while and then added back before the NTL takeover, but I think you still had to pay the cable company.

    Does anyone remember Secret bars? Pretty sure that's what they were called. I think they had a red wrapper and then the chocolate was inside a piece of white card. It was all criss-crossed chocolate, basically remind you of a bird's nest, with nougat or caramel in the middle I think. All a bit vague on the detail...but I do remember loving them
