KingOfHyrule Posted August 9, 2007 Posted August 9, 2007 Does anyone have a specific thing that they really miss, like a TV program or certain food or drink, that was once available but now isn't? I have two: Anyone remember HP All Sauce? It was the nicest sauce ever to come from a bottle, tasted a bit like ketchup, HP and mayonnaise mixed together! I don't know where it went or why... And fans of Pot Noodles - anyone remember the Pots Of The World range? Absolutely fantastic snacks, they stopped making them too!
Guest Jordan Posted August 9, 2007 Posted August 9, 2007 Vanilla Coke. That stuff was so, so nice! My pets Living in Shetland means i don't get to see my 2 cats and 2 dogs which i still think about alot.
conzer16 Posted August 9, 2007 Posted August 9, 2007 Wispas. The name Opal Fruits The lack of scangers/knackers (chavs in UK) The Irish punt (IR£) ( I miss it but the Euro is okay - I mean I don'#t particularly care what I spend but the £ was a beautiful currency)
motion Posted August 9, 2007 Posted August 9, 2007 Ditto on Opal Fruits. Routemaster buses in London. Lime coke.
Fierce_LiNk Posted August 9, 2007 Posted August 9, 2007 I love this thread. Things that I miss? A lot, I can tell you that. Tv programs like The Crystal Maze and Funhouse, as well as Dark Skies. As far as food goes: Heinze baked beans pizza, Pretzel Flipz and a chocolate called "Secret." Nobody probably even remembers that chocolate.
Paj! Posted August 9, 2007 Posted August 9, 2007 Britney Spear's Sanity I also miss Justice League Unlimited and Batman The Animated Series The best of it's kind, hands down.
Guest Jordan Posted August 9, 2007 Posted August 9, 2007 They still do vanilla coke at all Spar corner shops. Had one earlier Thats not possible. Unless they were imported from the US, check the Wikipedia article. Coca-cola have no intention of reintroducing it into the UK
Dante Posted August 9, 2007 Posted August 9, 2007 Thats not possible. Unless they were imported from the US, check the Wikipedia article. Coca-cola have no intention of reintroducing it into the UK What! Your lying right Jordan? Oh well, I hope orange coca cola stays around for awhile. I miss the great taste of 90's sweets like Opal Fruits.
mcj metroid Posted August 9, 2007 Posted August 9, 2007 retro cartoons. I know techically you can buy most on dvd or just watch POP but I miss watching them. Satam,Skeloton warriors,thunder cats. Long list. I miss my megadrive which i sold regrettably. I miss the days when chavs didn't esist and when the music pop charts were filled with great stuff. For those living in ireland. Remember top30hits? Miss that too.

Slaggis Posted August 9, 2007 Posted August 9, 2007 What! Your lying right Jordan? Oh well, I hope orange coca cola stays around for awhile. I miss the great taste of 90's sweets like Opal Fruits. Opal fruits rocked.

Guest Stefkov Posted August 10, 2007 Posted August 10, 2007 Wispa Pretzels, I havn't had one in ages so I thought they'd gone. Medabots. I loved that program. It suddenly stopped airing one day. Jousting and all that Knight jazz. I so wanna fight with some swords.
KingOfHyrule Posted August 10, 2007 Author Posted August 10, 2007 I actually miss the Irish punt too, even though I mainly spend money up north with the good oul British pound, God bless it lol Wispa, great call, I miss those, and I also really miss Sesame Street. Another one for the Irish crowd - anyone remember Bosco?? Or Cadbury's Olympic bars?
Oxigen_Waste Posted August 10, 2007 Posted August 10, 2007 Fantastic thread. I miss riding my bike through the suburbs, free from any doubt, hesitation or complication in my life other than that of the wind messing up my hair. Good days. Ignorance is, indeed, bliss.
Dyson Posted August 10, 2007 Posted August 10, 2007 And I miss this paintball squad show on channel 4 called Crossfire, god it was hilariously cool Best show ever. And I thought I was the only one who ever watched it! Always wanted to go on the show as a kid. :P
Marshmellow Posted August 10, 2007 Posted August 10, 2007 I haven't seen a Vanilla Coke in years. God it was the best tasting soda ever! But I spose thats good since I'm trying to cut back on soda... Roswell (TV show) only went 3 seasons and then dissappeared... My childhood. Life was so much simpler back then.
