Going round the shops for 50 pence pieces to feed the leccy meter used to be a right ballache. Grange Hill with Tucker and Roland etc.. The utmost need for a Mattel hoverboard. Reebok Pump trainers. Venessa Paradis.

Also anyone remember those orange sweet vending machines outside newsagents?
Some vandals used to burn the Perspex with a lighter to try and get at the sweets......
Also, the record box with 7" singles in on the counter of the newsagent with no centres in.......ex jukebox ?

I remember the first tv we had with a remote control, it was attached to the tv with a cable lol Yeah,....... My dad had a video recorder like that - huge thing made by Sony, I think it was a Sony C5 ? It had a cable to the remote if you chose to use it. This thing was a Betamax toploader and the size of a suitcase............LOL

I remember the first time I saw someone on a mobile phone and thinking he was a bit weird. Shoulda used the phone box like everyone else.
And what about rubber key speccies! Sinclair Spectrum 48K. The hours I spent playing manic miner and Jet Set Willy. Pmsl!
