The good old days eh.

We only had 4 TV channels but i'll tell you something.We had better programmes and more entertainment on those 4 channels,than the 100+ channels we got today.

I used to love playing this in the arcades,the smell of candy floss and *** smoke in the air,the lights and noise from the arcade,go and get a cone of chips with lashings of vinegar,then return for another play of this.


and this



Happy as a pig in **** playing these games....

I loved Airworlf as a child.
