Blue that is a real gem of a find! Its a year older than me.

I found all my old PG tips collector card albums in the loft recently, the ones where you collected the cards and stuck them in.

One is The Space Race, and another is about the Police. Will try to get a pic. I did think about selling but glad I didn't.

I remember the transfers Martin is on about, IIRC there were dinosaurs.

Keep wallowing (in nostalgia) :thumbright:

I seem to remember it was very early in the morning when Neil Armstrong went out for a stroll. Do I remember that right?

I was 10 years old and got my Dad to get me out of bed to see it.
My Mum, brother, and two sisters all stayed in bed. Me and my Dad sat on the floor in front of the TV together to watch.

EDIT
I just looked it up. It was 3:56 a.m so I remember correctly.

Wow I had completely forgotten they ever existed. Yeah I remember those.

I had a full set of the Thunderbirds craft that I rubbed onto the footboard of my bunk bed. They were on there for years until I grew too long for the bed in my mid-teens.

Well done Kev, that's them. I had the lunar landing one, dinosaurs like you say Matt and D-Day, an Aztec Temple, all sorts of stuff.

Happy days!!!
