There is a photo of my big brother wearing what appears to almost the exact same jumper as the person with their back to the camera in this photograph.

those sweaters were globally ubiquitous from the late 80s to mid 90s, we had them in Canada too. Something about the combination of fit and pattern made people wearing them look like they had just lost 300 pounds and had lots of loose skin.

yes it was a global phenomena, I think that will come back around in times of great prosperity and mental awakenings

my mum still has staple holes in the ceiling from all the buntings and stuff my dad used to put up every year, about a dozen sets of Christmas lights on the tree making it list. Before global warming was really at the for front of global consciousness.

umbros lego set dates from 1991, so I assume that's the year this photo was taken, that's contemporaneous with the Gameboy stuff

didnt get a gameboy til i was about 10, so i guess it's 1993-1994
my mother later told me that when my parents went to paris she got the gameboy cheap from off duty on the ferry
when i got it i felt excited but it was seen as out of date at that time imo the gamegear had colour screen and stuff and seemed more advanced.
fucking loved kirby and battletoads though, great games. zelda link's awakening i got in high school, which blew me away. i always remembered seeing it on gamesmaster, they showed the second dungeon trick for getting a key, you have to defeat 3 enemies in a certain order.
still got that gameboy ,and another one that my uncle vivian sold me that came with loads of games, but the screens have missing lines today
i tried the youtube trick with a hot hairdryer but couldnt get them fixed :-(

great stuff, yes links awakening is fantastic, I think I know what you mean about the order of creatures killed, was it something to do with pols voice, or was that another puzzle?
super Mario land was brilliant as well, my brother was much better than me at that. I remember playing my Gameboy on a camping trip in the mid 90s think it was xenon 2 I was playing
