How you know you experienced the 90's:

2) Gordon the Gopher! Edd the duck!!


3) You could do or tried to do the Prodigy step. 'You're no good4me....'

4) You owned or longed for an Adidas three stripe tracksuit

5) You owned a compilation tape with TOP TUNES such as "Mr Vain",
What is love" and "Rhythm is a dancer" and 'How Bizarre, How Bizarre"

6) Girls thought Blue Mascara was cool!

7) Girls actually fancied Garry Barlow more than Robbie Williams

8) The Racoons! ( Cyril Sneer, nuff said)

(probably the black ones with the pink tick)

10) Mr Motivator (What ever happened to him?)

11) Running on the spot dancing! (or 'The ESCALATOR!!' )

14) Girls owned scrunchies in an array of colours and tacky headbands with their names written on in thick glitter

16) You bought Smash Hits for the song lyrics and the immense amount of

stickers that you would stick everywhere!

17) You had a pen pal

18) You could only watch the Simpson's on sky

19) On a Saturday afternoon you watched Catchphrase, Gladiators, Generation
Game, Noels House Party and then Casualty

20) You taped the Pepsi Chartshow on radio one and tired in vain
to pause the tape before the annoying guy (Dr Fox) talked and ruined the
whole thing.

21) Cans of Coke were 25p

22) 10p Space Raiders Crisps (aint they still 10p??)

23) A grey Fruit of the Loom jumper was a must have

27) The Sky Sports Blimp!

28) Impulse body spray for girls

29) Hooch Alcoholic Lemonade (where's it gone?!)

30) 'Don't forget your toothbrush', 'TFI' and Big Breakfast with

Chris Evans

31) You had at least one troll

32) You know the dance to Macarena and Saturday Night. Youalso
tried to scat like Scatman John! Bi bat ba ba da bo...

33) You watched Baywatch and longed for the day that Eddie &

Sharni got together

34) You watched Byker Grove 'ha ha ha whatcha laughin at!' (the

themesong ending), used to say "Why-eye Spoogy" and saw PJ get shot in
the eye with a paintball!

35) PJ and Duncan not Ant and Dec! Dodgy Pop Not Dodgy
Presenting!

The 80's were much more interesting than the 90's, imo.

...that was fun!

However, many of those things started in the 80's so you could say that they were better....one things for sure the fashions were not better in the 80's- scarey!!!


Nevermind the motivator...what about mad lizzy.....Do you remember worzel, Tizwas, Cameo and his famous 'codpiece', fingerless gloves, Fraggle Rock, spit the dog, Mr Ben, Morph, Roland rat, the puffball skirt, the Beano and Dandy...the list goes on!!! ..zz.. :D
