h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

That last point is definitely one for me too.

My boyfriend used to fancy Katie Puckrick - probably still does for all I know.

I never watched the Big Breakfast - it's not on anymore is it?

No but they seem to be trying to reinvent its second incarnation on to Saturday primetime on BBC1.

or were Denise and Johnny it's third set of presenters?

can't remember too well now.

I lost count. When DVO and JV left the guy from Sunday Show took over. He got the old TT and then Richard Bacon took over.

Chads

Kilroy was here

I only ever saw Chads on an episode of HiDeHi anyway.

Kilroy is well overexposed at the moment but I suspect we're talking about different things

I remember that episode well. "Once they break out they'll be everywhere". What a great face for comedy that guy had.

Mini-disc and CDi too inventions with nothing but good intentions turning into horrible marketing ploys.

Video rental vans.

I saw Timmy Mallet just the other day, taking his kids to school. my but he's a little chap

They sell Caramacs in our tea room, you should come down

Wish they sold Caramacs near here also
What about:

Chocolate Flavor Iced Gems

Slush Puppies

Toffee Mallow Eggs

Tiger Tots, Teddy Tots etc

Soda Stream

Mr Men Yoghurts

Pink Panther Bars (Yummy pink chocolate)

ET cola flavored biscuits (all very bright colours, before all the worry about E-numbers came out of course)

Timmy Mallet used to drink in our pub but he could never see over the bar!!

Ive not had a caramac in years, can't even remember if I like them, bet they've changed though. If they were nice I'll bet they're not now?!!

Think of a number

Tripods

They sell caramac in my village shop, had one yesterday ( great cure for PMT)
They also sell highland toffee althought it tastes just as good, I reckon the bar is at least half its origional size.
