Had enough of 2020 so I'm going back to 1989. I'm off to the under 18s disco to try and snog that fit lad in 5th year who looks like Jason Donovan. Bros is on the radio and I've just back combed my hair and sprayed it solid with insette. I'm wearing Body shop kiwi lip balm and impulse body spray. Anyone coming ?

Can I be a CF and get a lift to 1982? I want to meet Simon Le Bon.

Oakmaiden · 19/03/2020 19:51

I'm going to wear my new bubble skirt. Oh, hang on...

Cheesypea · 19/03/2020 19:51

There such great singers and soooo sexy.

Itsallgoodbabybaby · 19/03/2020 19:53

Would you mind dropping me off in the 1920's? I'll pay 😃

Wereallsquare · 19/03/2020 19:53

Ooh, I'll join. My body never looked better. I was wearing a Brazilian bikini and snogging the guy I had a huge crush on. Sunshine and no worries.

Cheesypea · 19/03/2020 19:53

Toasty my big sister outside the chip shop shell give you a backey on her bike to 1982.

TheMemoryLingers · 19/03/2020 19:57

1989 is good with me! I'll just do a bit more of my GCSE history coursework and then I'll settle down to listen to the Pet Shop Boys and read Jilly Cooper's Rivals for the first time Smile.

GaaaaarlicBread · 19/03/2020 19:57

Hang on wait for me , I’ll be on my push bike wearing my large faux-gold earrings, pearl necklace that I’ve nabbed off my sister and a denim jacket covered with sequins i did myself the other night when I was reading Jackie magazine . Anyone want a backey on my bike ?

purrswhileheeats · 19/03/2020 19:58

Ah 1989... Erasure in concert. 🎵 I try to discover, a little something to make me sweeterrrrr Grin

isseywith4vampirecats · 19/03/2020 19:58

ooh can I join you back to 1971 charts full of glam rock, me hot pants and sparkly boob tube, platforms on and tiffanies on a Saturday night even though I was only 16 no checking on ages then but can I have todays wages as £3.74 hairdresser apprentice wages were not much even then don't think it would buy one drink today

lamppostdog · 19/03/2020 19:59

I don't need a backey, my mate's brother has an Escort XR3i and it's well ace. It even has a Garfield stuck to the window

I was at uni and Jesus could I drink back then!

Polkadotpjs · 19/03/2020 20:00

Ooh 1989 - just before I ruined my hair with a perm but before I found alcohol. I was a bit angsts then. Could I hop out in 1993?

Icare1234 · 19/03/2020 20:01

Oh yes - finished watching Neighbours.

ShadowKitty · 19/03/2020 20:02

I'll come too. I'll be wearing my pink ra ra skirt with leggings, curled my hair with bendys and put it up with a banana clip. I've got Bananarama 'Love in the First Degree' on extended 12" single.

If we can also pop into the early 90s I fancy heading to 'Youthie' on a Friday night. Might sneak out the back for a Blastaway if anyone fancies it.

lamppostdog · 19/03/2020 20:04

@ShadowKitty if you bring Blastaway, I'll bring Mad Dog 20 20 and Thunderbird

Half pint of snakebite and black currant down the uni campus bar. Happy times.

Mesmeri · 19/03/2020 20:16

I'm sitting in my front garden reading Bunty and eating a Wham bar and watching you all walk past looking sooo cool... I am wearing a padded hairband to disguise my bowl cut (trying to grow it out) and my new flowery cullotes.

lamppostdog · 19/03/2020 20:19

I've got spotty culottes that I got from Mark One, a ballerina top and a waistcoat. I think I'm the spit of Keren from Bananarama.

Postspecific · 19/03/2020 20:21

Ah @Mesmeri you and me both.

HerRoyalCarbyLess · 19/03/2020 20:25

Can I hop out in the early 00s? I wasn't born in 89, and would quite like to ruin my life differently. I have new ideas now.
