1996…that’s when GAP opened…dear Lord!!
Having said that – you got an awful lot for some of the cash they had!!!
Why use the screen grab from the video as a scree grab for the post? Too much effort? Couldn’t be arsed? I hear ya, buddy

-Now I’m beginning to wonder why the kids were saying that the money smelt funny and had ‘mould‘ on it.
I loved those coins so much. The punt always seemed so huge!
Your own Sheik is old enough to remember imperial currency. A half crown lads, a large coin with a horse on it!! Best of all, there were EIGHT of them to a pound – great days indeed. Half a quid was too precious in those days to be reduced to a coin – instead we had a ten shilling note. Howdyah like them apples? fifty cent coin? pffft.
I remember those big red ten shilling notes MilkShake MeCootie.
-Maybe they weren’t big, but I was small at the time and they looked big.
My brother got one for his birthday.
I never had one myself.
I used to have one of those half-crowns. I think it was the same horse that they used for the inferior 20p coin which I was never fond of myself, but I digress…
If it’s a competition to be the oldest person on Broadsheet you might as well give in now. I’m the oldest.
My behaviour is no reflection on my age, and vice-versa.
I am very old.
I had a dream last night that I was 55yrs old.
-Extrapolate whatever you like from that, but don’t say you weren’t warned. ;-)
