Being born in the early 80's,I remember getting up extra early on a Saturday to watch wrestling back when it was called WWF and had lots of big dramatic characters and storylines, not like wat I've seen of today's. Who was you're favourite old-skool wrestler? Deffo the ultimate warrior for me

I was a huge fan of the ultimate warrior and the macho man back in the day. As well as demolition. Dick the bruiser was my local hometown hero though!

My god!!!! This☝ 😃
I remember a time when the electric run on coins.
The tv was a rental, and run on coins!!
The home tv had 4 channels, only the rich had satellite.
The tv in my room was B&W with a tuning dial!
I had to go and seek my friends, or if I was lucky I could use the house phone. Cell phones are too handy these days!
He-Man was THE master of the universe and banana man was a close second!
Coal was still a staple diet of any homes heating system!
The closest thing to gaming in my house was a Grandstand console. (google it)
Even in the 80s kids could be disciplined properly and we behaved more than the ferrel youth of today! :)

Fond memories....

Said like a true 80's child, a rental tv in the living room and a 12" b&w in the bedroom with a radio style tuner (did you have the wire coat hanger as an aerial?)
