Coolness Bears Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 But i won't give them... Im exagerating, of course, but you really look like me... There are some differences between us (the main is the Hair, my hair is completely crazy, i have it in a pose so that i look like im a protagonist from some weird Anime...), but the main structure is equal between us... Haha wow! My hair is usually crazy! just decided to comb it ths morning! ^__^ as I was about to take a photo of myself! /vain Why did I grow up thinking it was called File-a-fax.. I've been thinking that all day! I thought it was called that and keep going to say it! I even shouted out! "I've found my fil-a-fax!!! to my parents confused faces. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramar Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 I've been thinking that all day! I thought it was called that and keep going to say it! I even shouted out! "I've found my fil-a-fax!!! to my parents confused faces. :p With a bit of googling, I have found the answer, Filofax is the name of the style of organiser that Funfax is. Now that the mystery is solved, I can live happily knowing that my childhood wasn't a lie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coolness Bears Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 Thanks for that Ramar. I'm so glad I found this as most of my childhood has been thrown away. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dog-amoto Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 With a bit of googling, I have found the answer, Filofax is the name of the style of organiser that Funfax is. Now that the mystery is solved, I can live happily knowing that my childhood wasn't a lie. Oh my god. This post makes me feel really old! I remember when Filofax was the must have yuppie accessory in the early 80s along with the housebrick mobile phone And now you're talking about it like it's an ancient relic from a lost civilization!

Nostalgia for the win I'm amazed you still have yours coolness, is it one you had from when you were young, or did you cheat and ebay it? It's my real one from when I was younger. Half the stickers are missing and most of the wordsearches are complete! I found it shoved at the back of a cupboard in the kitchen! And Tapedeck, Animals of farthing woods was excellent. I bought animal figures that resembled them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Android18a Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 I'm 25, I remember Fun-Fax being huge when I was in my latter primary school years. I had a Dolphins one, sticker ones, all sorts. Good times, good times. Then I got Sonic and Knuckles, and forgot all about the Fun-fax. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Works out at just over 30p (with postage) if you buy 60. Edited January 23, 2010 by Cube Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
