Saxondale Posted 13 September 2013 Posted 13 September 2013 I reckon the 1990s are now long enough ago that we can legitimately reminisce about them. I'll kick-off with: Baggy Ben Sherman shirts All clothes being baggy Girls drinking pints Girls wearing vest tops Girls sticking their tongue out in photos Sega vs. Nintendo rivalry Pogs Not being allowed to wear trainers in nightclubs Teletext (the internet of its day) Global Hypercolour t-shirts Eclipse jackets

I had to scrape my shrapnel together just to afford the bus fare home. Mum went mental when I showed her, 'you just wait til your dad comes home' she said. Dad let me keep it
