It was for the landmark achievement of swimming 25m, accompanied with a fetching patch for your trunks :awe:

An entire length? I sincerely doubt it :(

I still have all my swimming badges in a box somewhere. I remember mum proudly stitching new ones to my wee Speedos. Just yesterday :shifty:

:pointup: That is a room of coolness on so many levels :awe:

Some of you might be aware that the following pic was actually MY gaming setup as a kid...(when my brother was out) :lol:
file.jpg
The TV was bloody good too - never knew what make it was, just that it was a big (28 inch?) screen with no speakers. Pure 4:3 CRT fullscreen NTSC goodness, especially when sitting on the sofa that was only a couple of feet away!

Many many MANY nights were spent playing 4 player Goldeneye with my mates, listening to Geto Boys and other Rap LPs on the 1210's.

I haven't got any pix of my own room - megadrive, snes and vcr - connected via RF to a co-op TV (complete with vertical adjustment for ntsc stuff, via a long screwdriver sticking out the back)

The most old skool I can get is 2003 ish - my very first widescreen tv. Shame I don't have pics of the consoles below :(
Interestingly, the black Bose 4000's that are just visible in the pic above, are in the pic below too, and still in use to this day on a daily basis, just like the 1210's :awe:
