…and finally

Thanks again Asa. Once I get my act together I'll get an account at the new place, so see lots of you there.

30 years ago today: the smokey globe and the 2s

I never really liked the smoky globe. Thought it looked a mess. I liked the balloons and the COW

Same here - at the time I found the colours of the 90s globe quite drab and depressing compared to what had gone before. Looking back at it now though, it has a certain abstract beauty in its own way. Though compared to fat men paddling in the Bristol Channel, what hasn’t?

"Dark and moody" certainly was an early-90s aesthetic, wasn't it?

That said, I liked it.
