Evening Carol. Do you know I can't remember doing anything for my 18th, like yours mine was a long time ago but I do remember my 21st. My Mum and Dad threw me a surprise party with a local band singing and all my family and friends were there. Only trouble was I had flu so spent half an hour or so there then had to go home. :-((( Jan |

Like Joan...Nothing. It was just 21 in my day. Remember my 21st though, went to the pub with family and friends and was doing the conga down Brixton Hill at closing time. Also standing right by the kerb (very dangerous when inebriated) singing 'Big Spender' to all the traffic. Ah well we all enjoyed it lol Linda |

Hi Carol........well we didn't do anything special for 18ths then.....the biggie was 21......I had been married 2 years by then so threw my own bash......very low key by todays standards.....I am glad that they brought in the Coming of Age to 18 because youngsters mature quicker nowadays. |

I went down the pub at lunchtime in school uniform (with my birth cert) and had a few drinks. In the evening I went out with my friends and boyfriend and got thoroughly bladdered. Gwynne |

It was 21 in 'my Day' Parents treated my sister and two of my friends and me to a BOX at the theatre to see 'Music Man'. I was disappointed at the poor view from such illustrious seats but enjoyed the show. Lily |
