Plastic Dummies those ones for show purposes that people wore as a necklace but then started to suck them... Later on they found that when you actually sucked them you were poisoning yourself with toxins! So a mad recall message went out to stop people from buying them.

I still keep a pocket diary with my work appointments. No flat batteries or blue screen of death with paper.

How about: stick on heated rear windows, yellow foglamps with the blue centres, rally seat covers and tinted bands across the top of the screen with names on.

Younger viewers: ask your parents!

It will be all right in the end. If it isn't all right yet, then it is not yet the end..
