Thanks to Eish I remembered some stuff too.
I remember paying 26c for a quart of Lion Lager
I remember LM Radio. David Davies Hit Parade on Sunday evenings.
I remember Pip Freeman on Springbok Radio.
I remember Darryl Jooste
I remember Radio 5 and the awful pre-recorded programmes on Sundays that went out of sync. The DJ was De Nobrega. He always pre-recorded his slot, get to the studio, slap on the reel to reel tape and bugger off to LM for the arvie. The tape would run un-moderated and then the tape and what he’d be announcing would start to screw up. De Nobrega would annonce a song by some band and the music we heard was totally different! Embarrassing. The technician would do nothing (not paid to correct the DJ’s screw-ups) and the programme would degenerate into amateur hour.
I remember Rabbitt! Oooooh Chaaaarrrlieeee………Yay for Trevor Rabin and the boys!
I remember Ipi Tombi
I remember the surfing at Moullie Point. They were mad as hell with all the rocks (nee man, no pun intended!) into which they could be smashed by the waves.
I remember flying in a Viscount from Oranjemund to Cape Town at the start of each new term at Wynberg. We left messages on the sick bags for the next flight of boarders to read!
I remember everyone wanted to be seen wearing Reeboks!
I remember all the okes in class smaaked Sonja.
Chilli Chips!
