    Scotch video tape. Re-record not fade away. Pretty sure that was on the ITV highlights of the Charlton vs Leeds play off final we recorded off the tele.

    Wow, that takes me back. I remember having paraffin heaters as a kid.  I used to love that 'stink'.

    Blimey mate. I'd forgot Esso Blue. Didn't it go "bom,bom,bom, Esso blue?

    Seeing that we are on the lines of Yellow Pages, wasn't there one involving an old man in search of a book by J.R. Hartley (i believe that was his name also). On recieving the book from his wife, he pisses himself with exitement and the camera pans up to him smiling contently.
    The author was J R Hartley and the man looking for it was J R Hartley.

    Ah yes, that smell.  I couldn't have been much older than 10 before I was allowed to fill up the reservoir from the cans we kept in the basement.  Even younger than that, when we had an open fire, I'd use an axe to make the kindling from the offcuts of wood Dad would brink home from work.  As you say, the past is a different world.

    This mock ad 'Not for astronauts', makes me laugh, but I'm easily pleased.
