The 80s were my formative years (including the dreaded teenage ones) and yes, I had the perm and the blue eyeliner and went to see Duran Duran in concert. Ahhh, happy days x<BR/><BR/>PS: "Michael Jackson still had a nose and poor old John Bonham choked on his own spew"... classic lines!English Mumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10445701263951009306noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34591549.post-11108235344896894682008-05-16T21:17:00.000+10:002008-05-16T21:17:00.000+10:00In the eighties Jenny and I were scraping our penn...In the eighties Jenny and I were scraping our pennies together to buy our first (jerry-built) flat and we were working for a right-on, left-wing Soviet Union-linked bookshop in London (long ago closed down). We were supporting a campaign to unionise the notoriously anti-union Foyles Bookshop (the campaign failed). And yes, Thatcher was busy crushing the left and boosting big business. Politics took a turn for the worse but J and I made a 100% profit on our flat and bought a much more prestigious one.
