I love the 90's.......


I was sitting eating my porridge this morning, in a day dream and suddenly I got this wave of all the things I grew up around being a 90's child and how come we don't have them anymore?
I started to go into deep thought rhyming of the mountain of things that I used to have from putting Sun-In in my hair thinking I was going to be peroxide blonde and wanting my Mother to buy every box of Kelloggs box of Corn flakes so I could get every colour refelctor for my bike becuase I wanted to be the girl on the road with the most reflectors!



So if you grew up in the 90's you definatley will remember these....

- Going on holiday and coming back with a coloured hair braid and leaving it in for well past it's time


- Owning a ridiculous amount of scrunchies and those tacky hairbands with your name in glitter on  them


- You always wanted to be on 'Fun House' with Pat Sharp and the twins

 
- Collecting pogs, stickers & fancy papers

- Watched Sharkie & George, Count Duckula & Trap Door  (Cause there was something down there)

- Went to The Body Shop to put on White Musk or any sort of Vanilla Perfume


- Put wella colour streaks in your hair

- Owned a shell tracksuit or the tracksuit bottoms with the popper buttons


- You owned or wanted a Bennetton jumper and a Fruit of the Loom T- shirt of jumper was a must.


- Buying Smash Hits religiously every week for the song lyrics and of course the gigantic posters. ( I was obsessed with the Backstreet Boys)

- On Friday you watched Top of the Pops followed by the Crystal Maze and then Saturday evening you watched Baywatch, Gladiators, The Generation Game  and Noels House Party.


- You either liked or loathed Trolls

- You bought Hooch/Mugshot or Woodies alco pops


- Knowing the dance to the Macrena and Saturday Night


- You watched Biker Grove and got up on Saturday morning to watch Live & Kicking and not forgetting Saved by the Bell, Sister Sister, Kenan & Kell and Sabrina the Teenage Witch


 - Remember the Big Breakfast and Good Morning with Mr. Motivator?

- You wore stick on earrings, not just on your ears but at the corner of your eyes or in between them , WTF?

- You had to have a jewellery box and if not you were getting one out of the Elizabeth Duke Collection (Argos of course)

 - Going to the shop to buy all the chewist sweets you could find including Wham bars, Fruit salad sweets, Dan bars, Roy rovers ( my favourite) the list goes on

- Getting a Furby for christmas and owning several Tomagotchis (what the hell was the craze?)
