I have very little hair for a reason.

5 teenage girls in the same house at the same time.

Those days I don't miss.

 

I salute you. Mental faculties intact under those conditions is exceedingly rare. Even basic survival is to be commended.

My very typical old school Brit of a father in law always asks if it’s a boy or a girl so that he knows whether to buy a shotgun or a pony.

I contend that in the girl scenario, you most certainly need the shotgun for interviewing prospective boyfriends the correct way!

5 kids!? Let alone hormonal teenage girls under one roof!?!? Dear God! We have enough trouble with two little man pups constantly killing each other. Frankly I’m in awe of anyone with more than two!!! On that scenario, I can see how Golf becomes a necessity!!! The good news is you’ll get 5 times the love when they’re older.


Those Saabs have forever been cool and continue to be. They were bloomin quick in their time too. Always loved the engineering ethos of Saab, shame they couldn’t remain commercially viable. [emoji22]

We had one of these and a Sheep Dog in the early 70's.  "Barney" would start in the front seat and chase occasional objects to the back when passing.

It had a rear window that opened and 3rd row seats in the very back that faced the back. We used to tie fishing line to GI Joes and drag them along the highway.

Dutchman: that is a seriously cool bike! It really is the two wheeled equivalent of a sofa on wheels. One of my fond memories of working in Holland was the CRAZY large multi-sorry bicycle parks!!!

Yeah, thanks, the Netherlands is a real 2 wheel country.  And as for the bike, i needed something strong and big, i always say: with me on it over half a (metric) ton is passing by!  (410+  and 90+ for me.. (kg))  With my 6foot5 or 6? i'm a bit tall...  i once drove a honda fireblade but that bike was to small.

Ah, the good old days of the 70’s - the days when disco was cool and you could fish GI Joes our the back of the car!! My wife and her brothers used to drop pennies through the holes in the floor of their Datsun on the motorway and see who’s would bounce the most!

BTW, was that thing able to go around corners at anything more than 20mph!?

Disco was cool? 

I dropped a marble between the passenger's window rubber scrapers with the window down. Being a single parent we/she listened to that thing roll for 10 years everytime the speed changed. It was the shortest funny thing i ever did. That $^!# got old real fast. 

Remember the vans with carpet on the dashes

I had to google it. The early 90's are a blur in my life. I was in my early 20's and too cool for school if you know what I mean. Hell all the 90's now that I think about it.
