    I lost three quid on something once. It was this late night show where there were basically a lot of women getting naked, with some daft woman hosting the show. It was on digital or Sky, and Josie had told me about it but I'd never seen it, so when I once stayed over at his house we put it on for a laugh.

    We ended up making up a piss-taking text message to send in, since they accepted texts and had the host read them out or had them come up on the screen. It should have just been £1.50, but I dialled the bloody wrong number the first time. Still, they got their money, and we both rolled around on the floor laughing when it came up on screen for all nocturnal perverts to see. We even posted about it on the old Hipforums.

    I think it was "Can The Can". I didn't like that song, but her other stuff was okay. I absolutely loved her show on Radio 2, "Rocking With Suzie Q".

    Talking about pop, does anyone remember when nobody could make plastic bottles with the fancy bottoms so they'd stand up, so they'd stick those bits of black plastic to the bottoms?

    remember when we had the slam door trains? I loved first class cabins. They really were first class. Privacy, a lamp above your seat and curtains which were a Brit rail blue and grey. Now first class is just the same as peasant class. Only difference is colour of seat and bib on head rest.

    Haha don't forget the cup of tea john and the costing 4x that of peasant class. I remember that cresta lemonade, we used to buy it on sunny days from sainsbury's after a skate. I used to inhale the gas when the bottle was half emptull.

    Do you remember grass darts? Some called them flea darts!
