I defy you not to scroll down the page thinking to yourself "oooo, we had that!"

[ummmm]

OMG....one of the wall clocks my Nan still has...

[rockyracoon]

LOL, how funny is that, we had loads of that stuff.

[sara3]

OMG... my mum had everything on there :o)

[ummmm]

Loving the kitchen stuff....

I have the 1976, 1984 and 1986 on disk I am that sad

I used to have one of the calculators, I was obsessed with the red number display

[Buenchico]

Why have you used the past tense in your question?

For me, it's not so much a case of ""oooo, we had that!" as of "oooo, I've got one of those!"

[rockyracoon]

Well Chris, they don't make things like they used to do they?

Look at the price of the radio/cassette players and duvets

The modern equivalents are much cheaper

[Maydup]

Made me feel all warm and cosy looking at all that stuff. I think we had all of it in our'ouse.

My sister had a pair of those strap-on rollerskates!!!

Hah Chris, point well made. The one which really made me remember the 70's most, oddly enough, was the drayhorse ornament with the barrels in it's cart, I remember being fascinated with my mum's which was proudly displayed on our windowsill.

[Jillius]

ha ha, the 'vibratory massager' looks like a Black&Decker drill !!

[daffy654]

I never had any of those things.

This is quite amusing!

Fabbo - just who DOES buy a dressing table set?

[emmie]

the one for your barnet takes some beating, lol

[netibiza]

One of those occasional tables is sitting in my lounge as I type, only mine is original G Plan, not Argos. Am still trying to save up for some of those items!

[netibiza]

I always wanted one of those hair dryer hoods!

[craft1948]

I had the Carmen rollers :-(

[China Doll]

Took a while but we definitely had the toy telephone with the face. Can't see anything else that rings a bell though particularly.
