Good old days - when you had only 4 channels to choose from and no iTec streeming straight to your eye balls 24/7. Ok, I'm a bit old, agreed.

Ok, so there were only 3 but then 4 was AMAZEBALLS when it arrived. Still in my house we were probably one of the last to get a colour TV and the black and white had to 'warm up' before it got going. And did that thing where the picture all collapsed to a spot in the center. Loads of static on the screen. Toshiba FST, what a life changer that was.


For sake of clarity of the youths, 321 was a game show and Dusty Bin was a character on that back in the late 70's / 80's. Hence the association to the 321 WR1, and is not a reference that you have brought a bag of old bolts.
