The answers have been announced so if anyone would like a go before I post them (and everyone groans), drop me a pm.

I managed all but two of the answers and kicked myself (no, I did) when I found out the answers.

Likewise, would never have guessed most of them in a thousand years!

Quite a few there that weren't even borned in the 50's, so unlikely you'll have them on your jukes.

Only a couple of people PM'd me about this, but I only put it on here as a bit of fun really.

The official competition is won by draw. Those with the most answers are pulled out of a hat and a winner is announced. Last year I won (case of wine), there was only me and a.n.other with all the answers. This year I missed out by one answer I think.

I try and do as many as I can by myself, some companies get as many as they can to join in. Bit daft as you'd have to share the wine! I only have to share with my father-in-law!

4 jukes? Even more excuse to load em up with some moderner stuff!

My modern day jukebox (what LadyWayne did buy me for my birfday) can allegedly hold up to something like 30,000 songs. I've only managed to fill about a 10th of it so far! Course, it doesn't look as cool as your ones, or have as many flashy lights, but equally it doesn't take up an entire room.

We do have some modern stuff in them you know. No flashy lights, we can't quite stretch to the cost of a Wurlitzer 1015 'bubbler'. And we only actually have 3 in our sitting room - and still space to dance!!!
