What POSTERS did you have on your bedroom wall as a kid ?

[Easy 10]

I had Maria Whittaker in a skimpy snakeskin leotard. A Ferrari 308. And I had Wendy James in a BRA.

I also had one wall completely full of Spectrum computer game posters I'd cut from Crash magazine (#geek). So what posters did YOU adorn your adolescent bedroom walls with ?

 

[Hungry Joe]

You.

Oh, sorry, just read your full post.

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Marc Bolan, David Bowie and Patrick Thistle's Jimmy BONE

 

[AmexRuislip]

Linda Lusardi
Boney M ( I can feel the stick coming)
Obviously Albion.

 

[Exile]

Good thread.

A black and white pic of MEG RYAN, sat on a floor.



Big black and white Cure poster - fat Bob stood with his guitar, all in black, bar white basketball boots.



Plus an Albion team photo - probably the one with Dean Saunders' COCK on display.

Good thread.

A black and white pic of MEG RYAN, sat cross legged on a floor.

Big black and white Cure poster - fat Bob stood with his guitar, all in black, bar white basketball boots.

Plus an Albion team photo - probably the one with Dean Saunders' COCK on display.

Nice combo.

Pretty sure I had a Duran Duran poster from Jackie magazine

Incidentally, I don't think anyone has experienced true FEAR until they've heard a poster falling from their wall in the dead of night.

 

[Goldstone1976]

Led Zeppelin x3, Che Guevara, Bob Marley, E-type, Fiona Butler.

 

[Redundant Gigolo]

Debbie Harry. Never needed bluetack to keep that one stuck to the wall.

Jimmy Case celebrating goal against Liverpool 84 I think

Imran Khan looking imperious in the six martlets sweater.

And a smaller one of Paul Parker receiving his England cap. Travesty he played but one test against the all conquering Aussies on a wet top. Possibly the best Sussex batsman I've ever seen.

My dad always used to wonder why he never made big hundreds for Sussex.

It's true. Look at his stats and I think just a handful of times he went past 120 although he scored loads of tons.

Oh the 80's. Nostalgia.

At various times I can recall:

Sharon Stone
England football
Brighton & Hove Albion
U2
A map of Great Britain
Cindy Crawford
Roger Moore
Kylie Minogue
Viv Richards
Loads of things out of 'Shoot' or 'Match' magazines
Simple Minds
The girl out of '2 Unlimited'

 

[Ernest]

Kendo Nagasaki PEERING out at me from behind his MASK

Excellent thread. I had one wall painted black with big white DM either side of a huge red Violator rose. Large A0 poster of New Order's Substance Green Leaf on a blue background. As well as huge poster of Sherilyn Fenn (this one - )

 

[Mr Bridger]

Farah Fawcett Majors.
Aka 5 knuckle shuffle dart board.

 

[Dr. Notthenineo'clocknews]

Ron n Russ out of Sparks when I was about 10

The Albion - most of the time as a child

Siouxsie Sioux - Teenager

Poster size cover of Thrills Pills n Bellyaches (framed) - my first flat

Very true. Especially a big one. The dilemma afterwards was did you play around with the Blu-Tack then and put it back up then, or leave it until the morning?

I had a map of Britain as well. And being the uber-geek that I was (and am), I used to mark a dot at every away ground I'd been to in the country. But strictly not until I'd BEEN. One of the first things I'd do when I got home was to rush upstairs and do my new dot.

I was odd.

I had that Sherilyn Fenn poster at some point too, ruddy marvelous.

The other fear, was the sound of a wolf spider crawling across a poster. The tiny tippy tappy feet announcing it's impending leap on to your duvet!

I wouldn't dare emerge from under the covers until it was light again. A terrifying, bewildering noise that would leave my heart pounding in my chest.

I was odd.

My brother and I shared a bedroom for years and we had a Fart Chart, with categories ranging from 1 point for a 'Pip' up tp 10 for a 'Master Blaster Bum Rasper'. I once shat my PJs attempting a MBBR.
