Blue Goldfish? did I miss somthing there :-S

Teresa :-)

i had just started senior school so the thing i remember are

trying to avoid seeing the blue goldfish

the start of the british beat boom

standing on the kop with my dad when they used to sing along to the records on the pa

realising that there was more to girls than that they didn't play football ;-)

I was two months old when you were born Suzanne so here goes

Great TV, Blue Peter with Valerie, John and Peter
The Banana Splits.
TOTPs
Tiswas
The Young Ones
OTT (see Shanes link :-D)
Friday and Saturday night live.
The Tube

Great music singers and groups and the clothing which went with it
Glam Rock
Punk/New Wave
Two Tone
New Romantic/synth/goth

and you could see groups play at smaller venues and see the whites of their eyes unlike groups/singers nowadays who play huge stadium venues.

Im reliving my youth next month seeing on two seperate occasions but still in smaller venues, Suggs and his one man show and Simple Minds :-D :-D :-D :-D

Teresa

I was 32 when you were born!!!!

Oh dear I was married with an 18 month old, I was 22 when you were born. :-D

50 IS THE NEW 21 :-D :-D

I think I had my first kiss round about the time you were born! The boy who delivered our milk walked me home from the coffee bar - but my Dad wouldn't let me see him again! :-(

My daughter liked JohnBovi.

Year you were born I was 17 and started work :-( :-( Had my first girlfriend ie went to pictures and held hands with the first girl. And got terrible cramp in my vain attempt to get my arm round her shoulder.

And I think it was all Del Shannon and Bobby Vee on the juke boxes and dansettes - but I stand to be corrected. And Mandy Rice Davies and Christine Keeler in newspapers - wow, that Christine Keeler was attractive.

And I already knew everything about anything - even in 1963 :-D

I quite liked Errolsmith too

Suzanne you must have got espoused at a very young age!

Apparently Slash was brought up near me - have you ever seen him playing on the Chic track Le Freak live? Absolutely superb

My dad was the driver for the beatles and mum had their famous suits hanging in the living room wrapped up in plastic.

mum has a pic of me as a newborn sitting on pauls knee.

ERROL

loved northern soul.and errol brown..was married by the time of the new romantics .liked kate bush..and sham 69.

and ive always loved GUNS&ROSES.BONJOVI,AND AEROSMITH.
:-D

I remember the year you were born :-)

Rolling with the Stones and screaming at the Beatles (how sad is that) but seriously the old "Life begins at 40" is now life begins at 50 or even 60 so make the most of it. :-D

punk and new romantics and great parties

IM 50 IN MAY

JOIN ME IN THE CELEBRATION OF REACHING THE GRAND OLD AGE OF 50.
