What makes you feel old?

GirlRacer_2

I watched Multi coloured swap shop and the six million dollar man along with wonder woman, charlies angels (the original) and starskey and hutch. I've also worn shell suits, leg warmers and plastic see thru macs (mine was pink) and rode a chopper first followed by a grifter

I can remember nan taking my brother and I to see jaws even though we were under age, thought my nan was sooo cool for that:D

I can remember being in the school choir when a fight nearly broke out cause no-one could agree on the right words for 'Grease':o

and everyone walking around with 'Humphrey' stickers from Unigate dairy's 'Watch out, watch out there's a Humphrey about'.

I felt old today when DH sorted through a box in the garage and found my old stylaphone :eek: I quickly grabbed it and played Greensleaves much to the amazement of my children,they hadn't seen one before and asked if it was from the olden days :eek: I remember getting it for christmas in 1978,Boney m were playing on the record player and I also got a girls world
Off to put my teeth in soak! :rotfl:

No internet and really boring programms, used to make pictures with the letters. How thrilling was that:rotfl:

Later we had an amstrad that went on the telly.

I used to love the stylaphone, my brother had one we used to fight over it. I had a girls world too, little bruv was frightened of it, I used to put it in my bedroom doorway to keep him out. Eventually got fed up of it and cut all the hair off:rotfl:

Did anyone else used to tape songs off the radio or was it just me? And I'd try and hit Stop before the DJ started talking!

Then, because I couldn't afford to get Smash Hits every week, I'd sit there with my notebook and write the lyrics out...
