So some are 50 and some are 70 to get that 60 average and you consider them all 'really old'?
I get the Mail every Saturday for my Mum, because she likes the 7 day tv guide magazine that comes with. I flick through the paper, but it's all a load of celebrity tittle-tattle and non-news - then do the crossword.
Still nothing from Andy, Herts P&D about which 'publications' he buys.

Most modern TV's include at the very least a 7 day program guide and likely more up to date than a paper version, better yet - you can mark them to remind you or record them for you if you desire.
Ah the good old days, buying 'Max Power' magazine to look at souped up cars, pages of alloy wheel and exhaust ads and perhaps a few pics of beautiful ladies in bikinis lying across the bonnet of a luminous blue Vauxhall Nova
That right as I said earlier in this thread. I looked forward to my car mag arriving, can't recall which one as this was over 20 years ago but they did come with busty ladies and my mum and sisters were not happy with that and nor was I.Ah the good old days, buying 'Max Power' magazine to look at souped up cars, pages of alloy wheel and exhaust ads and perhaps a few pics of beautiful ladies in bikinis lying across the bonnet of a luminous blue Vauxhall Nova
Opel Manta was my dream car.
Thanks Harry, but at almost 86, just turning a modern tv on can prove a testing time for her. Life's too short to explain the tv's other myriad functions to her. As long as she can get Master Chef without accidentally adjusting the horizontal hold she's happy.
Not uncommon to see Capris around these days (there's a tidy 1986 D 2.0 Laser up road from me), but GM's rival Manta seem to have disappeared completely.

My dad had one of those.
I had the Vauxhall version - the MK1 Cavalier Sports Hatch. But I always wanted the Monza.
We had a MK2 SRI that we drove to Germany to visit the in-laws as the FIL was on long-term contract for Ford in Cologne. The only tape we had was 'Bananarama's greatest hits' that we played all the way there and all the way back. 25+ years later the kids still moan and groan about it. The music, not the car!I had the Vauxhall version - the MK1 Cavalier Sports Hatch. But I always wanted the Monza.
Sounds like some kind of punishment - "and if you're really naughty it's the Des O'connor greatest hits for you!!"
