Misura We're all too old for that nonsense now.

What care homes will be like in 15 years’ time:

I think I was on here when it blew up . But it totally passed me by.

white_dragon How’s the hip?

white_dragon

Jon Getting there , thanks. Able to drive now, can't tie a lace through.
How are you doing, any date for getting back to work?

Jon

white_dragon just building strength up now. Knee still buckles now and again. Off while Feb.
Glad you’re doing well.

white_dragon

Jon Quite a bit of rehab that. Are you sick of sitting on your arse , like me? And I can be as lazy as the best of em.

CBIT Soooooo, "Good work, fella" or "Bunch of arse "?
Made me feel a little sad, in that Loaded seemed to burn brightly for 12/18months before decending into parody and/or catering to the lowest common denominator (tits, tits and tits). Every one of the main men must have been totally fucked mentally and physically by the second year. Parallels to punk in 76 ( man) - it was over by 77.

CBIT

CharlieG Haven't watched it yet!

Young_Marxist_at_Tescos

Just watched it. Good work fella when it started out.

Bunch of arse when the market got flooded with copycat shite.

Was a bit put out near the end when DHM looked to be getting a bit upset. Hope he’s alright.

Young_Marxist_at_Tescos

He’s not complaining about the cold

l.q.navarro.

Young_Marxist_at_Tescos
My thoughts as well.
All in all, an entertaining 90 minutes

Flaneur

Concur with YMAT, just watched it.

Some bits were upsetting. A lot of sadness throughout that programme.

Fair play to DHM though, the drive to start that magazine was something else. Of its time, but time changes.

Flaneur

Not of its time, ahead of its time.

I was a big fan of the Arena magazine. I had adverts ripped from the mag, pinned to the side wall of the smallest bedroom of our semi detached council house

Me Mam's downstairs tipping her purse to find money to buy a bag of broken biscuits, and I'm upstairs listening to this:

Whilst gazing at stuff like this:

CBIT

Flaneur Same, i used to buy two magazines in me youth - Arena & Viz.

CBIT The Face for me. Top writing. Thought the Loaded doc was very good. Brought back a lot of memories. Pissed myself laughing at the magazine awards tail where they were all on acid. Thought the guy that took over at loaded when DHM jacked was a tit. DHM didn't look too well on a few scenes - echo that I hope he's ok. Maybe just the former excesses catching up with him. Reminded me very much of Dave 'Elvis' Elliot who just to promote Love2be, Magic, Stereo at Space and others. The crowd with Beer and Raine certainly set the tone for excess.
