I was just reading a thread on my BT account and it took me back :lol::lol:

 

So .... what is your favourite retro product/thing (obviously apart from your OSF :wink: ) - maybe it's Spangles, Pacer's (remember them, chewy minty sweets), banjo choccy bars or maybe it was your chopper bike or eagle eyed action man or maybe The Professionals or the Double Deckers (anyone remember that programme lol)??

Nothing I can suggest is retro- well not to most people.

 

When I was in primary school I can remember fads such as: skipping ropes, yo-yo's, pogs, pokemon cards, football sticker book and the coloured straws with powered sugary stuff in them (cant think of what they're called)

Had to be those Yo-yos - coca cola, sprite, etc that you could get

 

If you had the 'Professional' one with the clear edge, you were the nuts. All the rage in 1990 does anyone else remember them?

 

And Rubix Cubes lol

No-one remember pacer sweets then? Or the Double Deckers?

 

You can still get Double Deckers, although they are now half the size they used to be (just like Wagon Wheels)

 

Yep I remember Pacers. The minty version of Opel Fruits :wink:

Pip ... not double deckers the choccy bar ..... The Double Deckers - it was a kids programme - i think they all lived or built a den in an abandoned double decker bus :? OHC must remember it - he's old like me :wink:

 

Okay ... now I've looked it up on the net ... some of you may remember it from the photos - the girl with the tiger soft toy is most familiar:
