    Dreamscape Jackets, Spliffy Jeans and clothes that were cool when you was younger

    Im 26 now and just been discussing at work the kinda clothing that was "cool" as a kid.

    I remember dreamscape jackets and spliffy jeans! "pods"

    Older chaps at work

    "Anything from Benetton, well as long as it clearly and largely stated it was benetton"

    "Ben Sherman shirt, Levi sta-press, brogues and Harrington"

    Nasa jacket ( nice and safe attitude)

    I wanted more than anything to own a technics jacket

    Lets not forget - poppers what a stupid idea that was.

    Can anyone think of any other terrible stuff ?

    I'm so old i was around for the La-coste phase!

    You only need two tools in life - wd-40 and duct tape. If it doesn't move and should, use the wd-40. If it shouldn't move and does, use the duct tape.

    And if you can't fix it with a hammer,you've got an electrical problem!

    I had, might still have somewhere, an Eclipse membership card which I used to wear on a lanyard next to the whistle.
