He had an annoying advert on Central that seemed to be on every commercial break. It had a ridulously catchy tune. It's still in Derby, annoying website.

Didn’t it just become lots of Geordie Shore type shows? I remember it being great having MTV Europe on Eutlsat as my Dad had it pre-sky, only place I could ever really get Rock videos.

You know the Blue Ridge Mountains are in Virgina and know exactly why you know that. You followed a Villa match by waiting for the score to update on Teletext. You know the phone number 01 811 8055. You can sing "Don Amott - King of Caravans". You used a thin, crumbling slab of asbestos at school for safety reasons. You had pop delivered. You spent your dinner money on Defender. You have eaten Findus Crispy Pancakes. You recorded the Top 40 on cassette trying very hard not to record the DJ talking over the record. I score 10/10. I score 2/10 and turn 32 tomorrow (ceefax not teletext though, and recording the chart show) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
