I was 10 years old when You Really Got Me came out. I remember because I asked my mum to get me the single for my birthday.
Quote:
My sister, 5 years older than me, used to dress like that, and going back to the start, as you suggest, I remember afternoons when her friend would come over. The music might be Frank Ifield or The Beatles, but the scrapbooks they worked on were of Cliff Richards and Adam Faith. Me? Probably pushing my Matchbox cars around the table, but soaking it all up... Quote:

 Was just trying to figure out what you want to know about the babies..One is my Sisters born around & about the same time November 1968 for ours and then had twins the following November 1969 and realising my world had stopped...I basically talk about anything and often talk rubbish but really just joking about a lot. Had some very serious stuff go on in my life so prefer to act the fool a lot.... You need to just plain talk as I get lost with text talking mode.  Kinks, You really got me' just looked that up 1964 so I was about 16 then as born Sept 1948.My best mate now is Ash and he thinks he is old at 67 next month, but actually I do not feel old at all, have always done a lot of keep fit, all my life just about. A Love of music makes us different I reckon. Last edited by DianneW; 05-05-2021 at 06:28 AM. |

Thanks for the info about the babies, Dianne!

Yes, I'm hoping that a love of music will keep us going longer than most. If only there was one piece of evidence to support the idea, but alas, no.  @Trollheart: of course I was totally joking, Trollheart, though I always imagined that you would've liked the sixties stuff. I'm surprised/flattered that you should copy my "Born to be mild" tag. Did I miss you acknowledging the fact somewhere? I thought that as a courtesy on MB, we gave a shout-out when we followed up on another member's recommendation or other idea. Of course, it's easy enough to forget where we first heard a band name, etc, so I'm as guilty as the next person of failing to give credit :  *( * shycouch emoji first popularised by Trollheart)

Start a thread in sayings...
Don't keep a dog and bark yourself Don't count your chickens before they are hatched Don't cut off your nose to spite your face Don't put the cart before the Horse Don't throw the baby out with the bathwater Don't upset the apple cart miliions of them..... Chalk and Cheese is Opposites She is middle class I am working class My 1st Gig was Screaming Lord Sutch so Rosi and I hated it and we frightened I guess. Many more came along, Joe Brown dont remember the bruvvers then though. Stanley Halls and guess we were 14ish  '68 recall but took to a different way of life and got married, so now living in a haze and dead broke, took on buying a house. We still would sing this anytime we are somewhere we don't want to be... Last edited by DianneW; 05-07-2021 at 12:26 AM. |

Of course men and long hair was the thing then..pretty men..haha
 late 70's maybe....bellbottom jeans the fur carpet came from the magical Kennards in Croydon and got stolen in a burglary that was a turning point for us. Should be able to trace that time because Husband was working for a well known clock maker, Elliott Brothers located in Union Road Croydon...then they moved on to Hastings, that's when Rosi moved there.....we joined her in 2000, the year my Dad died and my Mother now hated me even more for that. As if I could care, to be honest. Last edited by DianneW; 05-07-2021 at 12:48 AM. |
