    Remember when this was cutting-edge stuff?

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dZ0l7dzB0y0

    You are the type of what the age is searching for, and what it is afraid it has found. I am so glad that you have never done anything, never carved a statue, or painted a picture, or produced anything outside of yourself! Life has been your art. You have set yourself to music. Your days are your sonnets.

    ―Oscar Wilde predicting Social Media, in The Picture of Dorian Gray

    I loved Dinosaurs! Tremendously silly in many ways but great fun. "Mom, why do we use paper bags for the shopping & not plastic?" "Because plastic would suffocate dinner". :D

    Nope, can't say they ring any bells with me. What flavour were they?

    On the topic of remembering things, and being unable to find a photo, does anyone remember 'Fives'? They were a tiny bag of crisps, which costed 5p.

    I used to eat them about 10 years ago I guess, they were plain ice lollies, in orange and raspberry :) after a quick google around they seemed to have been only an Irish thing, and from what I can remember I used to only find them at my local, quaint shop :P I'd have loved one today :D

    Only ever saw them in my local shop as a nipper, myself. I thought they were literally called '5p crisps', but according to my ex, their actual title was 'Fives'. They were stunnin'.

    Yes! They had paper wrappers that always stuck to the ice when you tore it. The orange ones were yum.

    I love this thread! Was trying to think of things that made me nostalgic but alas I need to live a bit longer but I thought of something.

    This is my first contribution so be kind.
    So here it is...

    Shoes with lights in the heel. I remember going into to get shoes when I was around five. All that mattered was how cool the lights were when you walked. Taught I was the bees knees even months later when my feet had outgrown them, didnt matter a damn... then the lights would stop working. That was when I needed a new pair. :)
