Re: Are we lucky to be alive........?!
Had this bloody thread going through my mind all the way home from Gloucester on the bike.....
So here's the things that popped in my mind....
The Clangers
Magic Roundabout
Mr Benn
Andy Pandy
Kick the Can
Skateboards (including home made ones from a piece of wood and a roller skate)
Action Man with proper flexible hands, and a newer version with eagle eyes.
Why Don't You (switch off your television set and go out and do something less boring instead)
Pipkins (It's Time.......... for a story)
Rainbow
Rent-a-Ghost first series before they brought in the stupid horse, McWitch and Audrey Roberts.
Spangles
Opal Fruits making your mouth water
Pacers - minty Celtic supporters' Opal Fruit style sweets
Nimble bread (she flies like a bird)
Mellow Birds making you smile
Has-been actors shaking their hands to reveal Nescafe coffee beans
Star Wars - the original and best
ET
Actually having to queue right down the street to get in the cinema
Calling the cinema "pictures"
The pictures being an acceptable place to go on a date
Paying 25p to see 2 films with a proper interval
Paying 25p to spend all day in a proper swimming baths with no wave machine in sight! Having a whole pound to spend during the day for entrance fee, drinks and snacks.
For my fellow Westonians on here - learning to swim in Knightstone swimming baths!
"Going down venchy" before European Health and Safety guidelines led to the closure of adventure playgrounds for fear of being sued.
Lollipop sticks making clacking noises on the spokes of your chopper bike.
Street parties practically everywhere in 1977 for the Silver Jubilee.
Compartments in railway carriages with sliding doors and a corridor all the way down the length of the carriage.
"Charlie Says..."
Darth Vader when he was the green cross man (David Prowse?) I think he was Bristolian actually.
Tufty and the ice cream van safety advert.
National Trust public information films with the acorn symbol and ghostly horsemen galloping down public footpaths.
and as they say in KTel record adverts.... and many many more

Playing British Bull Dog in the playing ground!
A-line school skirts that you would roll up to make them above knee and would roll down again when you had uniform inspections! Over the knee sock that were held up with elastic!
