Boudicca 702 Posted October 4, 2005 Why doesn't Google know about those yellow plastic things called "trick sticks"?! They were less than great, I must admit, but at the time, I am sure I preferred them to my Rubik's Snake! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Paul Bearer 6,102 Posted October 4, 2005 Trick sticks eh?............ I must be too old to know about them Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Teddy 21 Posted October 4, 2005 Unless you are thinking of hats, yes. Yup, I remember them, and clackers. I remember clackers they were great, but lethal! I believe you can still get the in Anne Summers Jiggle Balls (probably not really SFW) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lady Die 63 Posted October 5, 2005 Sadly we no longer have freak shows or public executions. I'd love to have sat knitting in the front row at the guillotine. I was born too late. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VileBody 11 Posted October 5, 2005 Anyway - what is a scoobie? My little reptiles haven't found them yet I don't think. Am still getting over treading on bits of those sodding fighting spinning top things they were mad about a couple of years ago. Re spotting odd people in the streets, I always found barefoot hippy girls in the early seventies very erotic in my prepubescent imagination.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Boudicca 702 Posted October 5, 2005 I realise that this thread has a limited lifespan.. My powers of prediction are distinctly underwhelming. Perhaps I should hang out with Banshees more often!

Windsor 2,233 Posted October 5, 2005 I'm enjoying this thread, I'll miss it when the mods blitz it. Re the white dog S**t: It died when the food manufacturers stopped using chalk as a thickener. The dogs didn't digest much chalk, hence the colour their S**t came out. I can confirm that white dog shite is still in existance. I happened to notice some today and it instantly reminded me of you lot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

maryportfuncity 10,646 Posted October 5, 2005 Get a picture of the white stuff up here. It'd be preferable to any of us trying to create our own as per the earlier post on this thread. I've tried e-mailing Blue Peter to see if they'll do an item on making your own white dog poo. For some unaccountable reason they're now blocking me e-mails.
