    Your silk shirt? I don't think I'll ever forget that and I wasn't
    even there.

    Don't most people have a fond memory of the decade that they grew up in?

    yeah - flares, fair-isle tank tops, mullets, shitty 3 cylinder
    Kawaskis, "The Liver Birds"

    all good, eh?

    Actually, the latter half of the '70s wasn't ao bad after the adoption
    of bondage trousers and incorrect tartan.

    they weren't *all* bad.

    Just mostly.

    Actually, the only good bit I can remember was the SLF "Suspect
    Device" cassette debacle.

    That was amusing.

    Oh, I don't know if that's entirely true. The extended video for 90125
    with Shannen Doherty in it wasn't too bad.

    McClaren?

    Well, that **** /might/ have said it, but only about 50 years after
    Diana Vreeland did so in the 1920s.

    Anyway, you're still not getting off the hook for that time you turned
    up wearing a skinny-rip t-shirt a the Penderel's Oak...

    my mum used to run a "boutique" in the late '70s/early '80s.
    no chance.

    Crickey, you're older than I thought.

    So how do you explain yourself given that you're too old for a mid-life
    crisis?

    I was born 1960. By 1970 I'd grown up. HTH
