Got the bus into town with K, T, L & A Headed to HMV and got my favourite cd. Tried on clothes in River island and Topshop, nothing looked good, the shiny skirt and fluffy top looked amazing on T and she knew it!
Pinched lip liners from Body shop, sprayed some White musk and managed to get out without anyone noticing.
Ate two Boosts and Pickled onion monster munch on the bus home, felt gross, will never be thin now.
Ate Spag Bol for tea and watched 90210 then Blind date.
Met everyone down the passage, pissed on Strongbow super, K robbed 5 embassy off her mum.
Got tickets for Bowlers next week, sooooo excited, hope F goes, I’m wearing my Kangol trainers or Gazelles and a crop top.

1994, pre-drinks chez TSS. Cab into Lewisham to pub that had a large rugby contingent complete with song-sheets. Cab up the Old Kent Rd to the Gin Palace. Ice buckets full of beer and Diamond White and dancing on the bar/tables until 2am. Cab home to red wine from coffee mugs.

Sunday: survivors breakfast of bacon sandwiches and many teas followed by an afternoon of Triv and Silk Cut.

I love this 🤣 I LOVED Jordan Catalano with my heart and soul back then.

I’m from a tiny town in the rural Midwest US too...funny how some things are truly universal.
