Why you should look through old catalogues...

The other day I bought a disc containing four old Argos catalogues from Ebay. I bought them because I wanted to look through the obsolete electronics (Amstrad Mega PC anyone?), laugh at the horrible patterned sofas, and spot all the toys I had as a child. I did all this, but I also received an unexpected bonus, in the form of a Gladiator-before-the-days-of-Gladiators -


Did you spot him? YES! Gladiator Wolf, from "off of Gladiators" fame, being manly and showing off just what he can do with a set of Argos dumbbells! There he is in all his glory, modelling #12 - 'Weider 34kg vinyl barbell/dumbell set'. As if that wasn't enough - LOOK -


There he is again on the left, this time modelling #4 - 'DP "Challenger" 33kg barbell and dumbell weight lifting set'. he certainly looks more convincing than that skinny dude modelling #9.

PS - also of interest are the three women all sharing one exercise bike on the second page. No one seems to do that these days, sadly.
