Ahhhh, just remembered Eurotrash with Antoine De Caunes! Fantastic stuff

Also, Vic and Bob (or Reeves and Mortimer) were also pretty 'out there'. Probably just weird now though

Parklife. Disco 2000. Jesus built my hotrod. Head like a hole.
Students all had phsycodelic ray-trace pictures on their walls. Or those jumbled 3d things you had to look at funny.

Child of the 90s here!

Tamagotchis
Light up trainers
Fancy Yo-yos with clutch mechanisms in them
Scented gel pens (you were a nobody if you didnt have at least 20 different ones)
A Ferrari F40 and Lambo Diablo SV on my wall
Furbies (the first time round!)
Otis (sp?) the Aardvark on CBBC TV...
... and SMTV live at weekends with Holly Willoughby cloud9
Super soaker water pistols cannons


And some grown up stuff too:
Double-denim was in fashion!
Windows 95 with AOL online
Collectable Beanie Babies
Gelled slicked hair with frosted tips
Driver 1 on Ps1 was the height of gaming sophistication and it was bloody brilliant
Friends on TV (How I met your mother? Pah!)
Pretty much everyone drove a lovely, smooth petrol car with the emphasis on comfort and taste, not "bling" or "aggressive sporty styling"
Performance cars were stuff to get really excited about, like the Viper and Clio Williams - not a mildy warmed over cynical marketing exercise
John Major at the helm, with things ticking along nicely


For adults and kids:
Sega Rally
The BTCC at its zenith
Boyzone, the Spice Girls, Steps and S Club 7 (the original lineup) in the charts


God, I miss the 90s! take me back!

The "hitman and her" Michaela Strachan still gorgeous, Pete Waterman actually a decent bloke off camera. I met him at a Historical Railway venue, which actually sounds very dull, and it was. Very.

Edit , my damn infernal iPad being an arse.

Fosters Ice was the first thing that came to my mind!! Then Hooch,
90's music, practically all of it.
The Blur/ Oasis battles, I liked both of them (which them reminds me of Britain awards!)
Ibiza being top of its game
Radio one having great DJ's (Judge Jules, Pete Tong, Dave Pearce, Mark and Lard, John Peel, Steve Lamacq)
Paisley fashion!
