To think revisiting things from your childhood is fraught with potential childhood-ruining disappointment

I used to play a computer game as a kid called Dizzy Goes to Treasure Island. I have fond memories of it.

I played it as an adult and it was clunky, total crap. Part of my childhood died.

On that basis I’m never revisiting Findus Crispy Pancakes.

I always found getting past the swooping eagle really difficult.

Treasure island Dizzy was a masterpiece! I could never get past coming out of the treasure chest onto the beach at the end... Always died. I know now I needed to be holding the cross!
