- uncle buck (1989) i remember the day john candy died. it wasn't that long after cool runnings came out in australia & everyone at brunswick primary was obsessed with it. kids were actually crying in the schoolyard when word got around. it was one of my first experiences with death & i remember being somewhat confused. uncle buck had been a favourite. i must've watched it at least 15 times as a kid. i have an uncle buck, i think everyone does & john hughes did a brilliant job playing tribute to the uncle bucks of the world, in this & other movies. the scene where mac culkin 20 questions john candy is one of my favourite movie moments of all time.
- married...with children (1987-97) season four, ep 5. guest starred kimmy robertson, who played one of my favourite twin peaks characters, the super squeaky lucy moran. she appeared in some amazing sounding films in the 80s such as 'the last american virgin' and 'my mom's a werewolf'...kyle, get on it.
- murder, she wrote (1984-96) season one, ep 1. i forgot how long this show ran for! i'm a sucker for a good murder mystery, plenty to keep me going here. jessica fletcher is one crafty cat. good times ahead!
barf me out, what an atrocious day of eating!
- crappy instant coffee w/ a bit of cocoa at work.
- french fries chips!
- liquorice allsorts, chocolate bullets & mineral water at bingo.

went to bingo with my mum, possibly the most 80s month safe place in melbourne. pretty sure absolutely nothing has changed at that place since the 80s, there's stains in that carpet that i recognise from 20 years ago when my nan would take me.
