Reminders of your childhood

[Life's Good]

A small selection of movies that I would look forward to renting from the video store on school holidays.
With rentals getting a workout I would inevitably have to adjust the tracking on the VCR to get a steady picture.

Was never allowed because way to expensive back in early nineties.



The Rome’s were my standard sneaker.



Was over the moon when I got my first pair of Nike airs, then I stepped on a nail which punctured the air cell, and whenever it was wet, the shoe made a authentic whistling noise.

Nah never got pumps either. Older cousins had them and I was crazy for a pair.

Think my first pair of brand shoes were black Converse with the *> logo

Aerobics Oz Style .... 6am weekdays... getting out of bed early, fixing up a bowl of rice bubbles and watching with the sound down so I wouldn't wake up the house...

I don't even need to see the video to remember the song. Always popped up as a 'community announcement' during The Afternoon Show on the ABC.
