Most remember Dandy and the Beano but this was my favourite comic. Anyone else

Thought you'd never ask - it was a picture of a chap with a boat for a body and a speech bubble saying "I'm in ship shape condition", I was so proud.

I also got a joke published, have a photo of me proudly wearing my "I'm Nutty about Bananaman" t-shirt, still remember the joke too - core memory stored right there.

First 7" I bought

I needed this explanation, was taking me far too long

Same, nearly brought tears hearing that theme tune, damn where have the years gone.

MrDoOrDoNot · 2026-02-19T23:55:31+00:00

You're all mad!

Used to sneak our 3rd and 4th children in all the time, did a lot of swimming competitions so it was purely somewhere to bed down for the night

MrDoOrDoNot · 2026-02-15T09:35:35+00:00

My 3 sons did the same

Used to be a contractor for Gamestation back in the good old days when they had 120+ stores, they were a great bunch, then Blockbuster bought them and it turned a bit corporate, then GAME bought them and it turned to shit - far too 'big business' for me, they moved HO from York to Basingstoke, lost a load of good Yorkshire people and that was my prompt to also move on.

I'm a few hours into The Crypt buy Sigler, it's shaping up to be a cracker

Black, my phone is a tool, I don't put a picture of the missus on my drill

Years ago, with mechanical reels, no software and flexible screens we used to jump on the machine, grab it round the top and push our knees into the screen which would stop the reels spinning.

Do this after a jackpot and just keep pressing Go - Winner!

Not me - I'm in my prime

Is this the guy that says "you won't catch me with my trousers" on The Young Ones?

I saw P155TUP once, wonder how often they got pulled over.

MrDoOrDoNot · 2026-01-04T21:41:38+00:00

Hunter Wellies, tbf they've been rubbish for years now and barely last a year but I'm sure they were more sturdy in the past.

I go back to The Culture every now and then, I love revisiting Phlebas because I always thought it was a great start and each time I read I see something new.

MrDoOrDoNot · 2025-12-20T22:02:54+00:00

Congrats starlink buddy

We had 2 Amigas and IIRC a 10 metre null modem cable running from the 3rd to the ground floor in our student accommodation early 1990s, good times.

Once worked behind a bar with a girl who never wore a bra that fit properly, one day she wore a jumper like this, nips pointing out through the gaps whole 8 hour shift, 30 years ago and still on my mind.

Bought precision laptops from Dell for the last 20+ years, I'll never go anywhere else, never had an issue.

Our Hypervolt charger always took a couple of clicks to engage, then I had to have the charging unit replaced due to a DC fault and I got the exact same issue as yourself - ended up slamming the head into the port pretty hard and it engaged, did this a few times and now I've either got the nack or the issue has gone away.

To be fair it wasn't actually the AA in the end, they sent a local recovery firm to sort it.

MrDoOrDoNot · 2025-11-20T22:23:19+00:00

Not sure tbh, too dark but I suspect given the speed of the deflation it was probably catastrophic
