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.

@juneybean

use of mint makes me think north east
Yeah I agree, made me think of Geordie Shore!

I've changed my mind. 1994 in Belfast

It’s so interesting- I wonder if kids these days are having such shared experiences when they are adults, I feel like there’s so much choice these days that it won’t be the same.

feesh · 21/08/2021 15:51

Late 90s. It can’t be early 90s as it was Chelsea Girl, not River Island, then!

SquirryTheSquirrel · 21/08/2021 15:51

Middlesbrough, 1990.

WhatsAppening · 21/08/2021 15:53

Toddlerteaplease · 21/08/2021 15:55

1995 Leicester

EverythingsComingUpRoses · 21/08/2021 15:56

Manchester (Trafford park)

1994

MrsPnut · 21/08/2021 16:00

Manchester 1994

I've switched between 93 and 94 loads of times, I really can't decide.

NichyNoo · 21/08/2021 16:00

Small town north west England, circa 1995? Sounds just like my diaries at 15 years old!

lottiegarbanzo · 21/08/2021 16:01

North East, 1995 or 6

MrsPnut · 21/08/2021 16:01

1988 was when Chelsea Girl became River Island.
Amdone123 · 21/08/2021 16:02

1992 Manchester.
Get those diaries published! So funny!

TinyDancer78 · 21/08/2021 16:03

Manchester 1994

Neverendinggapyear · 21/08/2021 16:05

Ooh..a few so close, one very nearly almost
this one will surely do it

‘Took the train to town, underground market was on, F got a Ralph Lauren jacket (fake) looks fit, better than his usual Liam G look. Headed to Afflecks and got an Adidas zip up top, original from the 70’s
Stopped at the Dry bar and had a few vodka and oranges
Got home late for tea, mum was whinging because the lasagna was in the oven all dry, why does it matter! Always mithering about something, can’t wait to move out’

Sorry if I sound like a prick, I kinda was 🤣

I’m trying to guess your friends’ names OP! Karen, Tracey, Lisa, Andrea?!

isitjustlockdown · 21/08/2021 16:07

I am guessing 1994.

No idea on area but I would guess not west London as no mention of some obvious places and I can't remember a place called Bowlers.

itsalldope · 21/08/2021 16:07

1992 Manchester. I loved Afflecks!

Neverendinggapyear · 21/08/2021 16:08

@CatkinToadflax No 😂none of them

itsalldope · 21/08/2021 16:08

No sorry not 1992, I missed the Liam G reference! 1996?

lottiegarbanzo · 21/08/2021 16:09

Afflecks places you in Manchester. I still think 1995 or maybe 6.

AngelicaElizaAndPeggy · 21/08/2021 16:09

Totally 1994/5. Did you have a really slicked back ponytail with two hairsprayed bits hanging down either side of your face?
