The amount of import hash pre soap days, never more than £90 an oz, Sigh.

No weed mind, apart from Bush, touted as Jamaican, but most probably African.( Put it this way, pre the home hydro explosion the local Yardies were buying green from me)

Never paid more than £10 for a gig ticket, never once paid for a festival.

Could park up anywhere (pre CJB)

Full power bike licence at 17 and you could fix your own car in those days without a laptop!

Zero zero is still about, though the price has doubled, haven't heard of Sputnik in years%) We had some Hash, called ' Mud' for about 6 months mid 80's, strongest i've smoked aprt from BHO, iso etc, never knew its origins

Legal K direct by post from China - a kilo for £170. And I didn't even like K.

Yeh, I fuckin remember them.. I HATED the 80s with a passion. You couldn't get into a pub wearing a leather biker jacket - unless it was a designated 'bikers pub' (though they were the best pubs anyway). Tossers wearing white socks and basically slippers with baggy turn up trousers and jackets with the sleeves pushed up, bumfluff 'taches, half arsed mullets, black leather ties, getting pissed in Mr Smiths to Rick fucking Astley... Don't get me started on the fuckin 80s...
