1990 rocked.

Going Live on Saturday mornings with Philip Schofield and the lovely Sarah Green.

Radio 1 with DLT, Simon Mayo, Steve Wright and of course the awesome John Peel in the evening.

Only Fools and Horses, Red Dwarf, 'Allo 'Allo, Challenge Anneka... (OK, but I liked the last one due to the beach buggy and Anneka Rices arse)

E30 M3, Ford Sierra Cosworth, Mercedes Benz 2.5-16, E34 M5, Renault Alpine Turbo, Lotus Esprit, Peugeot 205 GTi...

Happy Mondays, Stone Roses, Primal Scream, The La's...

No speed cameras (or very few, wasn't the very first one introduced in '86?), no traffic light cameras, no 'big brother', sensible policing.

Big mobile phones, beepers, faxes, squariels, 386DX processors, Atari Lynx, Commodore Amigas, Walkmans.


What's not to like?

+ Proper racing with proper cars at Le Mans, plus Senna, Prost, Mansell and Piquet in F1 and no Michael Schumacher.

Considering the techno-toys we didn't have in those days, inc no internet for the vast majority of people, we still had an awful lot of fun back then. Happy days.
(Provided you hadn't bought a house or an expensive classic car 2 years previously. )

Errr, Steve Wright. He was an annoying c nt back then too.

Aaah - nostalgia. It can play awful tricks with the mind.

I still have fond memories of 1975 - which just shows how misleading nostalgia can be.

I don't know, just look at how much more fun it was to watch aircraft in the mid 70's?

DC-8s, VC-10s, Tridents, Caravelles, Dan Air still using Comets, Viscounts etc.

Other than Glam Rock, it couldn't have been that bad?
