Haha, I can remember when a Freezer was 6c but it was called a Cherry Snow at first for a while.

Yeah, Jelly tip was a favourite.

Jeez yeah Dazzler Space Invaders was a great machine.

You're not talking about that great subi supporter from North Innaloo JFC, Umpire Wayne Barron?

I most certainly am LH. The great Wayne "Yumbo" Barron. We grew up together playing for NIJFC.

He was known as Yumbo in his junior days due to his penchant for that long gone Hungry Jacks offering.

He's now making his way through the umpiring ranks aspiring to the great heights reached by his good mate Mick Martell.

Still see him at P v S clashes each year, still a loyal Lion.

I was in South Africa last year - TAB is still going strong there believe it or not!!

I recall is was Count Chocula icecreams - mint flavoured. Used to each them by the carton. And Jelly Tips...now they were special.

Yeah, Elle McPherson in a bikini doing a TAB ad.

Yeah bring that back.

Try the back seat of a Morris 1100.

Geez the seats were comfortable.

What about the neighborhood deli? There used to be a great one on Moolanda Blvd in Kingsley that I would spend my $2 pocket money every week. Had a video store next door with 2 arcade machines.

Yeah, top man old Wayne. I usually have a beer with him every home game.

I think he's a member of this forum. I told him to join up a couple of weeks ago.
