What do you mean? The roads are quiet?

God I loved the 1970s. Long hot summers, holidays in Weymouth, singing Chirpy Chirpy Cheap Cheap in the back of my dad's Zephyr with my cousins, long white socks, hot pants and The Good Life on telly.

Well I’ve got soul, but I’m not a soldier, so……I suppose I must be dancer too?

muddyford · 25/07/2024 17:21

In the winter, homework by candlelight due to energy workers on strike. Going to bed with a nightlight like a stubby candle. I don't know how my parents managed.

I was 11. But long hot summers and early starts to drive to the coast, lunch in the garden, paddling pool.

I think you'll find it's 1479.

Thank you for reminding me of ‘I’ve got ham, but I’m not a hamster’
which always makes me giggle for several hours until DH suggests that might be enough now 😆

I don’t look a lot like Jesus, if that helps

JaneJeffer · 25/07/2024 17:31

I would love to be spending a day with my dad in 1974 Sad

It does, thank you.

MoonWoman69 · 25/07/2024 17:32

God I wish it was... It'd give me a chance to do everything so differently... I was only 5 then, can't believe it's 50 years ago!

JamSlags · 25/07/2024 17:40

@CascaChan sure was

Andthereitis · 25/07/2024 17:40

School holidays.

Journey yesterday was nice too. Lots of kids playing out to watch out for though!
