    I just felt a pang of emptyness to realise that chip packets of course dont shrink anymore !! I can even remember clearly how the plastic smelt when you did it, almost as though you could still smell the salt and flavour in the plastic!

    Yes I do remember Cheese Things.

    This has got to be the best thread ever!

    I'm having a meltdown or overload or something remembering all this stuff!

    Hey, what about "mood rings"?

    And those lamps that were made of hundreds of flexible glass filaments that changed colour and you could run your hand through them.
    I had one in my van and the chicks loved it! (You'd do whatever it took in those days.....)

    Also I have a pic of me and my Dad on holidays in about 1965 with a tiger tail on my belt.....

    I had a early girlfriend who wore a mood ring. The mood 'bad' came up often! LOL
    Fibre Optic lamps were so cool. That tiger tail looks just like the one in my collection Rob.

    OK what about only on TV stuff:

    K-Tel Record selector anyone?
