Getting old if you remember.......

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Old enough to know "Heidi", but still young enough to enjoy a flying lamn-mower.

YES! I remember my Uncle thinking it was a good idea to spraypaint the washing machine green because of that programme.

Look and Read! I do remember that.

Out there in space, will we find friends /
Is there a place where the universe ends?

Wordy, the strange orange thing with letters over him like a rash.

Prefered Dark Towers, from the same series. That must have been when I was at Hill View. God. A lifetime ago.

The Anglia TV thing reminds me of holidays in Southwold.

@ Burn... :notworthy: :notworthy:

You got to fight for what you want,
For all that you believe.
It's right to fight for what we want,
to live the way we please.

As long as we have done our best,
then no-one can do more,
and life and love and happiness
are well worth fighting for.

And we should never count the cost,
or worry that we'll fall.
It's better to have fought and lost
than not have fought at all.

Let's always take whatever comes
and never try to hide.
Face anything and anyone
together, side by side.

You got to fight for what you want,
For all that you believe.
