who remembers, and really wanted to be a part of "Jim'll Fix It"?????
one letter was only the start of it, one letter and now you're a part of it, now you've done it, jim has fixed it for you, and you and you...... So come on, what did you want Jim to fix for you?? I think i wanted to meet Gazza (i was in his fan club dontcha know :D), meet John Whittaker and Henderson (as he was then-i think-might have been Everest) Milton......I think i wanted to swim with dolphins, go to a chocolate factory-that still sounds appealing :D :D

- By Ioxia [gb] Date 28.02.06 09:13 UTC
Clackers, OMG I had some of those, they were cool.

See here http://www.comparestoreprices.co.uk/images/ea/early-learning-centre-light-up-clackers.jpg

Sorry don't know how to do links.

Anyone remember that plastic bag that was all the rage in the 80's it came flat and you had to put it together with popper things all up the side and thay came in an assortment of bright colours. I had a illuminous orange one.
- By HuskyGal Date 28.02.06 09:49 UTC
Yessss! Ioxia I do! :rolleyes: ashamed to say!
Werent they called 'Jelly bags' (and you got 'Jelly' shoes too!!) lol.
- By munkeemojo Date 28.02.06 15:38 UTC
i'd forgotten about jelly shoes! And those wellies with frogs eyes.....What about those lace things-they were in the faces of animals and you put your tie knot in their mounth, then snapped it down to hold it in place and stop the know coming out-anyone remember them?  And matchstick trainers!! Everyone in my year had them, but they all had the purple, black and white ones. I dared to be different and got the red/orange, black and white ones. Ooooooo. i was the only one with them-probably because no-one else dared buy them for fear of being ridiculed!
- By Ioxia [gb] Date 28.02.06 23:43 UTC
Oh yea jelly shoes, and how fasionable they were too.

Yes I remember those animal heads you stuck on the end of your shoe laces, I had some but sorry I don't remember the matchstick trainers. R

emeber the plastic stud earrings that were like a smartie, then you could get them in other shapes, oh and the necklaces that looked like lots of smarties overlapping each other.

I also had some huge feather earrinss, oh and the worst one of the lot some yellow frying pan with a fried egg in them big earrings *The shame*
- By HuskyGal Date 28.02.06 23:57 UTC
I caaaaaaaaant believe you just admited to that :D
(think I wore bright orange 'smartie' earing with my 'Frankie says relax' T-shirt!! ROFL) :D
- By caileag [gb] Date 28.02.06 17:58 UTC
thanks ioxia!!

i DO remember them!!!:eek:  didnt call them clackers though:confused:  dont remeber what we called them:mad:

and i had jelly shoes that gave you blisters.
- By HuskyGal Date 28.02.06 10:20 UTC

I remember lots of them and was only born in 88!
I loved Family Ness (I can still sing that theme tune!), Dangermouse, Clangers, Count Duckula, Poddington Peas, Penny Crayon, The Racoons, Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles, Trap Door, etc etc... although I admit it was probably the early 90's when I used to watch them :cool:
- By LF [gb] Date 01.03.06 12:58 UTC
:mad: :mad: :mad:  I feel blooming ancient now :eek: I remember those laces things cos my now grown up daughter had them.  I also remember all those telly programmes you're talking about cos I sat and watched them with my now grown up daughter.  I'm off to find a website where I can reminisce about watching White Horses and the Woodentops and Pogles Wood and to contemplate how old I am :(
