Did it button up underneath ??

I cannot commit to an answer at this time.

Possibly.

You could pull the waist tight.

I remember an Adidas coat that 'flapped' around the bottom, and you could fasten it up ? Wouldnt even know where to start looking for a pic of that though.. will try like..

Also those LA Laker jackets that had a kind of fold across 'flap' with a basket ball on it. You could keep your hands warm in it. All white if I remember.

I thought I was a decent google-imager too...

If we're talking coats like.

Anyone remember when we got water from the water board, gas from the gas board and electricity from the electricity board?

It was good, then. MOTD, The Big Match on Sunday. Midweek Sports Special or Sportsnight . All with proper presenters, not the rubbish we have now. Brian Moore, anybody ?

Amazon is releasing the original Eastman and Laird TMNT comics in hardcover. The 30+ comics that they did were my all time favorite comic. No one drew NYC better, it was pretty violent and nothing like you saw on tv (all the turtles had red bandanas for one). You could also also TMNT the 1st American Magna.

All time best Retro games:

1. FF6
2. Mega Man 2
3. Phantasy star 2
4. Cyberball (arcade)
5. Zelda II Adventure of Link
