In the Inside No.9 doc the other night it was nice to see the Scarred For Life 70s volume on the shelf at Steve Pemberton's house along with his other treasured bits of memorabilia. Good work, fellas!

I love the Hollies but they sort of ended up in that horrible 1975 netherworld - too hairy, too desperate. Sad

plus Yorkshire in total deluge of rain! Journey home no fun at all.

For some reason I was terrified of the alien kid in Sky in the mid-70s, his weird blue eyes in particular! And the way he read a massive book in about one minute by flicking the pages quickly. I was so scared that I avoided the final episodes and only saw them a few years ago on dvd.

What a marvellous addition to the squad that man is. We are gonna need him as the season proceeds - on and off the field.

I always found New Musik and Buggles a bit scary - it felt like the future and that was a bit frightening at the time - aged 15-16. Love it all now, like.

Very presentable, Rob! My photos from 1975 are still under legal protection...

Spot on there, Ken - it's a magnificent book of which you should be rightly proud, Rob. It's the kind of book I will read every five years or so. It will prove to be timeless.

I find that the weather in Yorkshire is often sarcastic - never-ending drizzle like a prog song that fills an entire side of a forgotten album that even its creators go "yeah, that was crap that! I think we did it as a joke"

David - I used to love your and Steven's column in the NME - funniest and wisest part of my week! Always dismissing the entirety of jazz as making "farting noises" etc.

I love love love these covers and have entertained the idea of getting all her books from this period. A pipe dream but a rather wonderful one.

I thought all the attacking players worked and Aaronson proved how useful he can be - his movement for goal one is fantastic and he thoroughly deserved to finish it off

This is indeed horribly fascinating and could not be made today. Beyond brave television...

Just finished the massive British/US comics sections in Scarred For Life 3 - Jeez man, it's brilliant, breathtaking, bizarre! Maybe the best writing you have ever done. I think I may need a second mortgage though - all those lovely comics! PS - saw you guys in Harrogate earlier this year - ace!

My dad did 10 years night school to get him out of a life of manual labour - missed the entire 1960s working like a bastard. Became a lecturer on telecommunications - teaching radio officers going to sea.
