>> "And now, some pages from Ceefax," in the afternoon? My cue to go outside and play...

- scrumper 14y agoHah! Fantastic stuff! And of course Your Sinclair is a prime nostalgia trigger all of its own. Do you remember Bamboozle (I think it was on C4 rather than Ceefax.) What about this then? http://www.grangehill.net/bbc1_clock_offair.jpg http://www.grangehill.net/bbc1_clock_offair.jpg I remember being blown away when they changed to this: http://625.uk.com/tv_logos/logos/bbc1_85.jpg http://625.uk.com/tv_logos/logos/bbc1_85.jpg Funny to think about how little media we had back then, when today I can pull a slab out of my pocket and access a significant fraction of the world's movies, songs and books instantly. Reckon I had more fun then though, but that might be because I didn't have a hellish job and a family to feed. Ah well. Cheers for the memories. Better stop now or we'll end up talking about Bagpuss and the bloody Clangers like a pair of students.
