Blimey that brings back some memories -Treets! :crying:

Nice find TV.

Crumbs you don't realise just how much has gone until you see it listed like that

And some of those names you would of at the time think they were for ever. :sad: :think: :crying: :huf:

Superb, yet at the same time quite sad.
For a good while into the clip, I was thinking 'I remember all of these', but was thrown by the south eastern train, and American footballer.
I can still remember the Corona 'pop' van delivering our supply of soft drinks.
I still call a Marathon bar a 'Marathon'.

Cheers for the memories!

Kevin

Quite right Kevin

A Marathon is a Marathon who can pronounce snickers anyway without it sounding stupid. :huf:

I had a drunken caper one night, myself and a few others were wandering the streets on our way home, rather worse for wear, dropping bits of doner kebab meat and shouting "JIF NOT CIF! JIF NOT CIF!".. Ahem :redface:

And I know many people who refer to HSBC as "Midland Bank". In fact where I live now, most locals refer to the company I work for, by the name it had four names ago (if that makes sense :think: ).

I recall Midland Bank's mascot during the 1980's. A yellow griffin type thingy. All the kids at our school who opened an account got a free Midland Bank bag with goodies inside. We thought they were the biz! :dance:

I'm still with them to this day.

Hate to say this - the most evocative thing in the whole piece was the music -
The record was given to me by my then SO - a Dan Air Stewardess by the name of Mary Booker when I left to States in the mid 70s - Bless her heart and cotton socks

Indeedie..

The soundtrack featured was out a little before then. My mom mourned my loss everytime she heard it and I'd only gone to Plymouth to join the RN Bless those 3 Degrees
