Over the years I’ve been making @vhsrevue.bsky.social a few people have asked if I’ve ever found a home made sex tape hidden amongst someone’s VHS collection. Well, today for the first time I can say yes. Yes I have. #vhsrevue

2002 Pros: Affordable houses.

Just seen the news the hilarious and brilliant Patricia Routledge has passed away. @timwray.bsky.social shared this bizarre anecdote in Ep 33 about the time he had dinner with her in Adelaide on 9/11. RIP

What were they thinking? Ad for Flora Pro-active margarine, 2002 #vhsrevue

I remember yelling MEETING TABLES! quite a bit back then. That’s probably more like late 2001 or early 2002. They moved from Port Road to the corner of Marion and Richmond Roads around then

Found a new niche channel I like.

If you want to know what Australia culture was like for the youth, it was making Futurama and Simpsons references.
