Popular Post tonyh29 Posted January 5 Popular Post Share Posted January 5 I guess for me , briefly in the late 70's Starsky and Hutch were the coolest people on the planet , me and my mates would slide across the bonnet of our dad's cars and try and enter the car through the window as we tied to re-enact them when we played outdoors I think we changed to Bodie and Doyle at some point , probably after leaving a huge scratch across the car bonnet 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Albrighton Posted January 5 VT Supporter Share Posted January 5 My mum had a bit of a crush on him back in the day. I don’t think I’ve ever watched an episode of Starsky & Hutch. I mainly know him from “Don’t give up on us” and “Silver Lady”. I remember him in one of the Dirty Harry films. I heard good things about the Jerry Springer opera, never got round to it.

sidcow Posted January 5 VT Supporter Share Posted January 5 If I tried to jump through my cars window now I'd get stuck on my beer belly with legs waving in the air. It would not be cool, or even dignified. A slide across the bonnet would probably result in a visit to the body shop for dents to be pushed out as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A mate of mine who osed to have a string of record shops up in Jawedeeland once paid for his services to promote his stuff and some record fairs I believe. Apparently he was difficult to work with because he always wanted to go on the beer. For Jawdees to come to that conclusion he must have been a monster piss-head.
