I used to get a slice of Gala pie from the deli in the supermarket when I was little if I behaved myself. Nearly fifty years later I still occasionally get a big slice from the deli counter as a treat for myself (the jelly's the best bit btw)

Varta - destroyer of boards (A2000) and two sets of dodgy SMD Capacitors (A1200s). I still have my A1200 with Blizzard 1230IV 32Mb 50MHz +68882 FPU that I used to use for 3d stuff (Imagine and Lightwave) and weekend SWOS, Worms and Super Skidmarks tournaments circa 1996-98

Just finished repairing a 1986 Dixons SR6 Slimline (the one that was part of the deal for the Speccy 128 toastrack in fFeb 1986). It's definately age but Cassettes seem so much smaller than they did when I was a teenager

probably the Brannigan range beef and mustard obvs but Gammon and Pineapple was great too. Smiths circa 86 Flavour and Shake only for the strange flavour combinations you could make with the individual sachets eg Tomato + cheese and onion, fish (which was the same as scampi fries) + Worcester sauce

Installed it over the weekend, only had a brief chance to play as was at work and it's AMAZING!!!!!, took me a good ten minutes to remember how to change the sounds Lol. Brought back some great memories of the original, many many drunken multi-player games in my student flat between 1996 and 1998

"Entrapment" Connery/Zeta Jones heist crap. Only saw it as I had a £5 Virgin cinema unlimited pass and had watched every film in the cinema on a week off. It was totally dire and the first one that Ive almost walked out of , which is saying something as I saw "Morons from Outer Space" at the cinema

Grand Prix was a Cinerama film as well so it would have looked amazing in that format on the giant curved Cinerama screen

I'd agree with that, only pens that don't cramp my hands. I'm stuck in my ways after all these years, Bic crystal mediums for pens, Staedler Tradition 110s for pencils

the real trick is to find the optimum angle for the seat, once found its like bliss. Mine now sits dipped forward nearly 40 degrees so the first contact is at the back of the seat onto the best cushioned part of the bum, was able to do a couple of thousand miles on the bike without a sore bum at all

Nothing screamed "your mam's a tupperware rep" than that lunchbox. Mine was always accompanied by a little yellow Return of the jedi thermos that was originally white inside but ended the same shade of orange as the lunchbox due to about 2 years of tomato soup

Rock Star Ate My Hamster. Where else could you have a 4 piece band with Zappa, Lemmy, Siouxsie Sioux and Morrisey, then have Morrisey flounce off and leave the band as you wouldn't let him have an £8000 laser show. Played it non-stop, only ever got 2 gold discs. Had it on Speecy then the Amiga

One problem with that, in my 20's there were no digital cameras or phone cameras so there are very little photos of me in my 20's and the little that did were on others film rolls

Damn, loved him in Buffy especially on the rare occasions the Ripper side of Giles occasionally emerged. Favourite role was as the delightfully evil Mr Gently Benevolent in Bleak Expectations where you can hear just how much fun he must have been having

Indeed they are. Have a Clattering of Jackdaws nearby that mean the streets seagull population are kept to a minimum (watched 2 lure a gull off its nest while the others raided it and then do the same a few weeks later to the same gull). Love em, they're like little bouncy black and grey thugs
