Gen X Assemble !!!

[Hanovercrosse]

I’m off out, I’ve got a carton of Um bongo and some opal fruits. I’ve got a wham tape in my Walkman and I’m wearing leg warmers and my best ra ra skirt.
Who’s coming and what are you bringing ?

I might just stay in and watch Blackeyes, or Twin Peaks.

I'll be late, start without me, I'm going to town to walk around Woolworths....
(take me back 😢)

Surely you mean Sobranie Cocktails for a Friday night. Or some More Menthol for the weaker amongst us 😁

Nobody else wearing Poison? Just me then. Doesn't matter because it's all ANYONE will be able to smell.

White kickpleat skirt, pastel batwing top, poncho pink lipstick, rigid backcombed fire hazard hair, bottle of concord, packet of Marlboro Light, phone card so I'm not stuck when the coin phones are all full up and emergency calls only.

You need to get one of the new BT Chargecards that’ll be coming out in about seven years’ time! Thank me later 👍

I've got some Body Shop Dewberry spray, some toners and shaders and a copy of Smash Hits. Where are we meeting?

We can meet by Chelsea Girl, it’s next door to Athena, if you know where that is ? Across from Our Price

I'll be the one in snakeskin print jeans from Flip, with a black vest top with a white racer back crop top under it, black waist cincher belt, 4 inch bright red stilettos, huge earrings, shaggy perm dyed dark blue and my dad's old dinner jacket. Reeking of Paris, with either bright red or a weird pinky blue lipstick.

I'll bring the Wild Turkey and diet coke and the Sobranies. I'm right at the beginning of Gen X, so my play list veers from T-Rex to Bowie to Hair Metal. All you New Romantics don't know what you're doing.

I used to work in Our Price, it was next to Athena though we didn't have a Chelsea Girl and we really did used to ask "Record, Tape or CD"?

(Ad where a little old lady walked in to the shop and asked "Do you have the one that goes: cue heavy metal riff and air guitar" and the staff ask "Record, Tape or CD"?

I've just finished my shift at the winebar and I'm off to a warehouse party. You're all invited - snakebites and expired beer all round! I have to warn you that there may not be a proper toilet...

I've shampood my hair with Silkience and my curls are popping - held in place with Shockwaves gel and Strong Hold hairspray - be careful with your cigs because I could go up at any moment.

I'm wearing black DM's, oversized Levis with turn ups cinched in with a chunky belt, black vintage bustier and an oversized dinner jacket over the top. Bright red lippy and winged eye liner. We've all piled into my best mates ~deathtrap~ Mini. See you there & we'll dance all night, high on life!

Happy days!

Blue eyeliner, blue mascara, Twilight Teaser lipstick. Perm upwardly mobilised by Hard Rock Hairspray. I will waft in on an asphyxiating cloud of Anais Anais wearing a Frankie say Relax t-shirt, ra-ra skirt, studded belt round my hips. and tukka boots. I’ll bring a bottle of Taboo and ‘Rio’ by Duran Duran.

A bottle of lambrini, 10 JPS and my pink tinsel deeley boppers.

I’m getting a lift on the back of my brother’s BMX

@Hanovercrosse Twilight Teaser lipstick for me, with you on the electric blue mascara!
One of my daughters bought a puffball skirt last month!
"It's a balloon skirt, Mum not a puffball! You weirdo" Or words to that effect!😂😂😂😂
Edited to add, anything Body Shop in Dewberry!

I’m bringing white lightening and bottle of 20/20 that my mates brother got for us all to share from corner shop.wearing Charlie perfume that i oversprayed on myself, along with pack of cigs pinched out mums stash in the cupboard, Tom Tom crisps for munchies. Way too much hairspray in my hair that both sides are parted and can’t even get a brush or comb through. Wearing a naff naff green jumper with black leggings and white with green stripe adidas torsions😆telling my parents I will be staying at friends house for the night but instead will do all nighter in the park😂

Will be wearing Geordie jeans and a funky jumper and coming on roller boots! Yee hah 🤣

Once I hit 15 I will be bringing a litre of cider from corner shop to the party lol 😆

Any Gen C-era watching Glastonbury and remembering the old times? Wish I was there.

I'll be there soon, who can fake my elder sisters signature the best? We can use her paper driving license for ID at the offy for some booze. I've already used my college bus fare for 30 B&H. I've lost my black cherry lipstick!

Just putting on my deely-boppers and limbering up my clackers!

I'll grab my 'Y' cardigan or maybe the burgundy waffle one. Navy pixie boots. Will be late, badly applied moonlight nail varnish still drying. Will bring paper bag overflowing with penny sweets as still sucking on last Saturday's rhubarb and custard. I reek of Vanderbilt.

I’m on my way! I’m wearing super-baggy trousers with buttoned cuffs at the ankle, a striped lurex scarf at my waist instead of a belt, a frilly front New Romantic blouse and a riding jacket that I bought at a jumble sale. Suede pixie boots obviously & all topped off with a beret worn at a jaunty angle, over hair ‘crimped’ by leaving it in tiny plaits overnight. I am wearing Nick Rhodes style make up, heavy on eye and lip liner! I’ll pop in to the corner shop where that shifty bloke will sell me a giant bottle of cheap cider despite that I’m obviously 15 and some menthol More because I got my allowance today. I don’t really smoke them but I think they’re cool. I’ll bring my copy of Smash Hits because we have to know all the words to the Top 10 before we go to the Friday night disco.

Can we go to Wimpy please? I fancy a knickerbocker glory. I’ll be wearing my 501s, pink Keds and a jacket with huge shoulder pads. I’ll have permed hair and wearing pale pink Mary Quant lipstick with my blue mascara.
Can anyone get any Pernot and black?

Ooh, I love a Babycham!

Whatever whiskey I can steel from my grandads mini bar, I’ll be mixing it with cherry 7up. B&H, Sobrani cocktails or menthols. I’ll be wearing an oversized cardigan over a body, because I won’t have hypersensitive middle aged bladder to worry about. My Walkman has two headphone ports if anyone fancies listening to The Mission with me.
