Yes, I remember sugar-starched petticoats, white plastic belts and white stilettos. Was a long thin gawky teenager but managed to develop into a tall and slender blonde rock chick in the 60/70s. Adored leather hot pants and long boots (ha, ha). Was a real wild child. Got married and became a mum at 36. Still a real wild child at heart but now look more like a fat old mother hen than a rock chick. Have lost 2� in height and seem to have almost doubled in width!!! Adore rock music, the louder the better and hate canned pop music. Fascinated by Robbie Williams!!!
Here goes me..Age 58 last week. Boo Hoo !!
Was a huge Elvis fan ..used to cut out all his pics and put them in a scrapbook .Ditched Elvis in favour of The Rolling Stones,Beatles and Kinks.
Was also a tall thin long haired hippy and am now also twice as wide and an inch shorter.Used to hang around with lads with scooters and wear very short skirts and crocheted mini dressesand flares..My Dad used to say "Don't bend over,people will be able to see what you had for breakfast ".
Have developed into a miserable old crow with not many teeth left and a walking stick !!!
Oh I forgot ..got married at 23,two sons one of which is still half living with us.Well his dirty washing is anyway !
lol gessoo - I've also had a soft spot for blonde men too & have met Joe Brown - lovely man. Funny you should say you're fascinated by Robbie 'cos that's exactly what I say I am. I thought he was odd & a bit scary when he first went solo & I still think he looks very troubled sometimes.... he's fantastic entertainment on stage & love the music except for Millennium - I turn that one off. I loved all music but it was the Beatles who really grabbed me - still love the music.
shaneystar you made me howl with the 'breakfast' comment - that's what my mum used to say. She also told us that when she was young she had to see the doctor & he looked at her bottom. When she asked her mum why he'd done that she told her it was to see whether her hat was on straight.
Perhaps best not mention I'm still skinny.....no....right, sorry
btw IAP, in answer to your question.....No, must have been just you. lol!
Well where do I start? Also adored Elvis, but then I adored most pop singers anyway, I was mod, and rocker depending on the bf, alsdo when I came over here I was young looking so was also a disco diva (my sister was Miss Ibiza, and Miss Grace and Elegance and she was 32 - so the papers lied and said she was 22!!!) I was a primary school teacher, a foster mother for a short while (when my best friend beggared off and Social services had to track down her husband in the Army), secretary, GP telephonist, window dresser and more, how I've packed so much in I do not know. Was a hippie, went without shoes for a year in England (thought that was my "thing"). Rode a Souped up Tiger Cub, a Velocette 350, passed my Car Driving test at 42 (in Spain), married at 31 had my daughter at 42, goes on and on, retired at 45.And now paying for my sins with aches and pains.
Did any of you do the Briget Bardot thing and wear jeans in the bath and let them dry on you - sure that caused my arthritus.
Evenin' all - been very quiet in here today I see. Hope you're all ok. This is only a flying visit to give the bad news to the lucky person who's on lav duty tomorrow morning.......
Hope you've plenty of harpic ooooh!!!
