Yo-yos Clackers Playing kerby in the street Jumpers for goalposts Pairs of trainers hanging off the telephone wires
People queueing or waiting and not looking at their phones There's a pair hanging over the road at Hanchurch not far from the main car park

If only there were some form of near inexhaustible information I could explore at my fingertips 😬

His hair probably fell out therefore making him less attractive to a TV camera. 😊

Great question. You couldn't turn on the TV in the 1990s without him smarming or improvising something, he was on films, tv and was part of the luvvie comedians that went on to conquer the world (Thompson, Fry, Laurie, Branagh) On scouring the internet, looks like he had serious depression To this chain, I'll add Mike Yarwood. Still alive apparently but I've not seen hide nor hair of him since Ted Heath and Harold Wilson left no10

If only there were some form of near inexhaustible information I could explore at my fingertips 😬 I'd read somewhere that it signified someone had died there, I'm sure it was some Latino gang custom or something. Maybe Hanchurch has it's own 'Crips' but I haven't seen them when walking the dog.

Spooky, there was a Roland TR-808 on an American Storage Hunters/Wars programme last night, from the early 80s, worth $2k if you happen across one

I saw him in an improv show in Paris in about 2002, he was excellent.

He took a break last year around September/October I think, I presumed he was on holiday, be nice to see him back, I agree about him being one of the better posters.
