You know theres a whole group of us who call ourselves ninjas and live in a barn. We came together because we get ignored.

Feel free to join us over there sometime. Ive been on this site over 3 years now and still get ignored. (You will pribably all ignore this post too)

You've gone all 1980s whllst I was in the real world.
Now where did I put my Frankie t-shirt?

At Xmas we'd be allowed Advocaat to drink, only a small glass though of course until the parents went out without us

@brizzle we are jumping backwards & forwards through the decades I think we are now embracing a bit of glam rock.

brizzledrizzle · 03/08/2018 21:25

OK...flares and tassels then :-)

Can we have some older Queen hits?

Ooooh....am waving my tartan scarf here. Bye bye, baby, baby goodbyyyyyye!! Although mine is Cornish tartan! And no, I don't speak like Demelza Poldark. Smile

Gawd! I well remember the Bay City Rollers!

They were all supposed to be about 15, then it turned out that they were in their thirties and married with kids, and teenage girls were threatening suicide all over the North East (cultural hub of the pop universe).

What the Hell was that?

SchadenfreudePersonified · 03/08/2018 21:51

By all means time-travel through the greatest fashion, food and music horrors of the last century but please - no Chas and Dave . . .

YouveCatToBeKittenMe · 03/08/2018 21:58

Errr...bit late back to this... @SchadenfreudePersonified who is Jason King and why does he have fleas?

(Fleas are hard to get rid of unless you treat the pet and the whole house as they can live in even hard flooring for quite a long time.)

dontcallmelen · 03/08/2018 22:05

It’s a loooong story @YouveCat which I can’t actually recall how we decided it was the case.
I saw Bay City Rollers, at the Lewisham Odeon, for the life of me can’t remember what year it was though, Humming Shang a Lang & waving my tartan arm scarf.

Myimaginarycathasfleas · 03/08/2018 22:18

I bought my Magimix from the Army and Navy in Lewisham. Would love an upgrade after thirty odd years but the bastard won't die.

Myimaginarycathasfleas · 03/08/2018 22:35

if we're time travelling I'm taking these sodding boots off.

aaaah, that's better.

< picks up a momentary whiff of Hai Karate and then ... gone >

dontcallmelen · 03/08/2018 22:38

@myimagine ooh that’s a blast from the past, my mum worked there when it was Cheesemans prior to Army & Navy, do you remember the glass bridge that got you from the store to the centre?

Myimaginarycathasfleas · 03/08/2018 22:47

Yes I do! It's been a long time since I was in SE London (Blackheath) but have fond memories.

dontcallmelen · 03/08/2018 22:57

Aww, Blackheath is still pretty much the same, Lewisham has changed a lot, so many high rises & new road layout it looks totally different now the army & navy site is now a massive police station.

SadieHH · 03/08/2018 23:22

Bloody hell, I think you lot are older than I am! Shock

Hi Science 👋🏻

brizzledrizzle · 04/08/2018 01:21

I read a book when I was little about a girl who somehow ended up with a pony which she kept on Blackheath common.

Nothing common about Blackheath Brizzle Grin Grin

Leaving so soon? Do try some of Schaden’s Avocado Surprise.
Don’t mind me, just going to run the Bex Bissell round.

SchadenfreudePersonified · 04/08/2018 10:26
