Choppers were dying out when i was a kid. However Raleigh also produced these abominations.....

A bike that does not know what its meant to be. They were heavy and shit
 
I always wanted a chopper, but my folks wouldn't buy me one due to the amount of kids that were splitting their heads open due to being insanely easy to wheelie, or crushing their nuts on the gearstick. Halfords have recently brought out a limited edition reissue of the chopper, but it was a poor imitation of its former self IMO...
 
They all fucked off to France (and Bali).

They will be hosting "Area 23" at Boomtown Fair this year in August. Last time they did a UK festival was 23years ago, although a few members have DJ'd clubnights since.
 
Who knows what a Bender is and its got fuck all to do with Wimpey or Futurama....=D

It's a form of lathe. I know this cos we had to make and use one in "Rural Studies" at one of the schools I attended. Hippies may have claimed it as a name for a tent of some type but it is historically a lathe made by woodsman making shit out of branches on the fly afaik.

This (to me unique in all my years of schooling at various schools) lesson also included such gems as how to make woollen garments (from sheep to shoulder,) "Gypsy Pegs" and assorted other shit involving twigs, branches, farmyard animals, auld folk's ways and such like.

Bodging - that's what that's all about, Shammy - and they call them pole lathes in some parts.

A bender was a homosexual when I was a lad . . .
 
I have three ZX Spectrums (48K rubber keys, grey +2, black +2A) & two commodore 64s. Broken Amiga 600 I need to restore too.

Unfortunately my console collection starts at PlayStation. I still need an Atari Lynx & a SNES, would get a megadrive & Atari 2600 if I see them going cheap.
 
I loved my Amiga 1200 - bloody impressive bit of kit for the time - 24 bit colour, 2MB chip RAM, upgradable to 8MB fast RAM, with dedicated audio chip. Beat the shit out of any PC at the time. I always wanted the Hard drive add on, but instead had to play Monkey Island 2 by constantly swapping the 12 floppies it came on...
 
I kind of wish I had an Amiga 1200, but lets not pretend it beats any kind of PC & I still wont pay the amount of money they sell for. You could buy a 486 with more ram, better sound, better hard drive & better graphics when it came out, albeit for more money.

It had 8 bit graphics, like VGA, 256 colours on screen, but you could get proper true colour on a PC at the time.

I'd buy an Archimedes before an Amiga 1200.

I respectfully disagree... OK, only 256 colours could be displayed on screen, but it had a pallette of 16.8 million to work from. The sound beat anything Microsoft was chucking out at the time, which is why the Amigas were THE tool of choice for budding music producers. Octamed? Fruity Loops? Plus PC graphics were still extremely blocky at the time (though admittedly faster) - the Amiga graphics were hi-res in comparison..

Edit: I admit PCs had more raw processing power, but the Amiga chipset used its lesser power more efficiently - plus had dedicated graphics and audio processors working in tandem with the Motorola 68020 CPU.

The Jetset Willy code sheet:

Totally unbreakable for kids without access to scanners and printers and cameras. :D
 
Yep, I've still got that on my bookshelf... This book is why I nearly killed myself with nutmeg. Did you try smoking Broom? What a load of wank.. :)

Aye of course I did! The nutmeg experiment got as far as vomiting over my school uniform. Then I discovered you could swig cough syrup and slap it onto skins to make Benalyn roll up highs 8( Amazing how many pharmacists would give schoolgirls bottles of this and that...

Then there was the room deodorantiser from the sleezy sex shops = Amyl nitrite =D.....now that takes me back.

This is before I discovered real drugs right.

Haha.. I've never felt as bad as I did after eating 2oz of powered nutmeg with a tablespoon... 48 hours of vomiting and hanging onto the floor because it was trying to shake me off...

Not to be pedantic, but the 'aromatics' from sex shops were/are butyl nitrite or nitrate. I used to have access to pharmaceutical grade amyl nitrite in glass tubes which popped when crushed (hence the term 'poppers')... Absolutely blissful rush with no fuckin headache..
