well for every black hole there has to be a white hole for things to come out of. a more positive happy place.

so what would you like to see come out of room 909? things that you used to have in the past that are no longer made. a device to make your life much easier.

the only rule is that it has to be positive and happy ie no " an honest politician" answers. !!!!


i want an intelligent car that will drive me when i'm either too tired or too merry to do it safely. ;)

:rolleyes: Did you mean to put this into the Room 101 thread?
I'm guessing that what you need out of Room 909 is a new, super de luxe gas cooker, complete with the back-peddling mudguards and go-faster stripes? :D

I want a tea caddy, like we used to have attached to the wall in the kitchen when I was a kid. You pushed a button on the front and a teaspoon of loose tea was dispensed into the teapot you held underneath.

It was a piece of very 1950s plastic design and most people had one but now you can't find one anywhere.

I can hear you all now saying "Crikey, he's easy to please isn't he?..I mean, he could want world peace and goodwill to all men, but no he wants a sodding plastic tea caddy...Sad little boy"

othing wrong with wanting little things. world peace is all well and good but what i meant was stuff like this. little bits of happiness that make the day go smoothly.

the chocolate bar that they don't make anymore coming back into production. does it affect the conflict in israel? nope but you get 10 mins of pleasure.

i want a fortified wine that i can drink and it gives me the effects of alcohol but then it fades and i wake with no after effects at all. :P

I *think* you can get them again but they brought them back under a different name. Trouble is I can&#39;t remember what it was now...

...and I might be thinking of something else. I know they renamed opal fruits and I think it was about the same time they did spangles.

bad news see this site (http://www.aquarterof.co.uk/whatever.php) they were re introduced but due to poor sales they were withdrawn again.

if you are ever near totton or lyndhurst i&#39;ll let you know where the sweet shops are worth it just to see the walls covered in big jars of sweets. :D

It would be good to go into Room 909 and find a big chest full of all the missing TBs and Geocoins that have disappeared throughout 2006 :)

I would like to bring back Jaffa Cakes, the proper ones BEFORE they changed the recipe to "improve" the flavour. They had more crunch then, too soggy now ;)
