Facelifted Fairmont Remember when Ford took its flagship LTD nameplate and stuck it on what was a compact five years before? Cheap “downsizing” trick. No one was convinced.
Rita Coolidge - All Time High (The Theme Song From Octopussy) 1983
Looking for something else to use Tmblr for, as well, you know….
Ten day countdown!!!
‘All Time High’ How well timed. Just finished watching Octopussy again on DVD. This theme song showed just how darned good John Barry was as a composer. It’s relatively timeless, certainly transcending the period in which it was released (1983). Was it the last great Bond theme tune?
Ford Thunderbird & Thunderbird NASCAR, 1983
T’bird’s the word The Aero ’Bird looked so futuristic when I saw it for the first time. And to think that underneath was the same platform as the Box ’Bird. When will car makers give us efficiency and aerodynamics again?
Nearly forty years of great memories I had to join in and blog about this.

Ashes to Ashes 30 Day Challenge: Day 26: Favorite weekly storyline Series 3, Episode 2 A severed hand is sent to the police station and investigations link it to the murders of several women around the country, all of whom had used the Crescent Moon dating agency. After Alex has unsuccessfully carried out an experiment in speed dating, Shaz, disillusioned with her job and seeking a challenge, goes undercover to trap the killer.
Mrs Glenister What I remember about this episode are Beth Goddard’s lines, intended, I am sure, as an in-joke: ‘Is there a Mrs Hunt?’ she asks. Luigi (Joseph Long) replies, ‘There was, once.’
‘The poor, poor woman.’
“Is there a garden in there?” “Yes, why?”
The Blue Peter garden Season 3 was not that fab with all the budget cuts, but this was a classic moment.
Supervillain David Hasselhoff’s best role was not Mitch Buchanan or Snapper Foster. Or even Michael Knight. Who can compare to the evil of Garth Knight?
