Groovy Chick was everywhere in the 2000s, I'm assuming its mostly disappeared now.

The other thing that was everywhere, and does seem to have stuck around a bit were Me To You bears.
I loved those do you remember blue nosed friends

The mention of Clinton Cards also reminded me that my ex worked in Card Factory at one point 🤣

This is more 10s than 00s but I’ve just randomly remembered those rhinestone and plastic crap covered phone cases you’d get in Japanese shops. I remember getting one from the Japanese shop in Eldon Square in Newcastle when I was at uni (mine was less blingy than the one in the photo). It scratched the sides of my phone and was near impossible to get on and off.

I low key still love these but not sure I can pull it off as a 41 year old living in muddy Sussex with the whole wax jacket / Land Rover / Spaniel aesthetic I seem to have going on 😅😬

I do have a Swarovski crystal covered lighter that lives in *that* kitchen drawer for candle lighting - Mr Fluff hates it but it’s my greatest 00s throwback item 😅😅

BBC iplayer put that documentary on which originally got Stacey Dooley noticed back in 2008. Even if she is a bit of a twonk now you can see how she was the breakout star from it.

But got me thinking about BBC3 in the 00's. The target audience was teens and early 20's, but they absolutely seemed to hate their own viewer demographic. Every programme was about how tit young people all were, how can we humiliate them, what situations can we put them in where they all look like whiney brats.

But for some reason, even though I was that age, I guess I lapped it up.

I think it was BBC3 but possibly E4, I was obsessed with the show Sun, Sex and Suspicious Parents. Used to watch it to get hyped for my teen holidays to Magaluf and Zante 😂

Do any of you follow Ash Holme and Jack Remmington? For anyone who doesn’t know they are best friends who met on The X Factor. They spoke recently about some of the fakery around the show
