[@MythicShot]

A swinging centre in Limerick? WAY ahead of its time :)

[@luvhart]

Delighted that the fluke problem in cattle can be treated

[@deluxedjsireland224]

I'm surprised and a bit disturbed at how many of these ads I remember the music of. How much telly must we have all been watching in '86??

[@timtrek]

my sister made me go up to Maurice and say 'you are a total prat' outside mass in Brittas Bay in 1985! (I was 6)

[@13infbatt]

A drama about the Irish advertising industry during the eighties would be great, like mad men.

[@cormacdoheny470]

It was in 1986. The voiceover over the Texaco Collection ad says, "Watch out for new gifts in " 87". There are also any other reasons posted here in this ballot.

[@mfitzy100]

Had they no way of correcting audio in 1986?! Visit Limerick’s swimmin....swinging granary complex...lol Things were so hit and miss and slapped together back then

[@cormacdoheny470]

I think those voiceovers were live.

[@5516724]

I just noticed that, it's funny lol

[@lippyfrybender4622]

Jesus Limerick had a swingers center in 1986 Might explain stab city lol 😁

[@andy240190]

the stag ad was class much cheaper times with the box of rose and they taste better

[@5516724]

Andrea mel Murphy that my father I preferred the original sweets that were in the box , their crap now and over 7 euro for a box

[@andy240190]

Ya totally agree about the rose there made away difference today there definitely not as nice

[@carolinemccormack5364]

the milk tray was alot cheaper back then, you would pay ten euro for a box today same with the biscuits, how time changes

[@silvergirl2847]

No opposite if adjusted for inflation the 3.88 box of roses would be 10 euro a box .but thewere proper chocolates after all!

[@carolinemccormack7764]

@@silvergirl2847 yeah that's what I said they around 10 euro a box today, and the tubs are at least 7 euro were they would have been half of that in Irish punt at that time, though I would live to see what the prices would be like if the punt came back

[@ColmORourke1981]

Stuff the Cadbury's, the Yellow Pack assortment'll do me grand ;-) The three ad breaks which feature Maurice are all from the previous year, 1986.

[@5516724]

Colm O'Rourke the stuff was cheaper to buy then than it is today, the roses were £2.89 then and now the same size box is around 7 euro and the sweets in it are shit, they're not like the ones you got in it back then

[@mfitzy100]

Stuff was made expensive compared to average wages and earnings though. These are far more affordable now but the quality has dropped considerably since then.
