Jess That sounds more useful than a spork. Trouble with the spork was that the food had to be 'bite size' as it was useless to try to cut anything with it Dee xx |

Tony I've got some Doc Martens! And I've been wondering about having the hair cut again but think I'm a bit old! Would still wear a Crombie though! Jen I bet I'd enjoy that. Debby |

I read all those books and wanted to be a suedehead but I was sort of a boot girl! Did you ever see anyone dressed as a Clockwork Orange - I thought that was sooooo cool and I can only have been about 12 - bit worrying now when I look back. Debby |

Debbie Did you have a real hankie in your crombie pocket or a fake one. |

Little Lil - no - I just pulled the green silk lining out! Tony - I'm talking from 1975 to about 1982 - I liked the clothes so much. Then I went all New Romantic - yuk! Debby |

You're making me feel young now! Yes I was 2nd generation but really enjoyed it. Gawd it's really brought it all back - must dig that music out! Debby |

Tony The hankie was how I worked out that Debbie was 2nd generation. You had to have a real hankie with the pin and a 'feather-cut' hair style. My hair is still suffering, when it gets to a certain length it has a kink just where it was feathered (lol). Also two tone trousers/skirts/dresses and loafers. God did we think we looked the bees knees. |

Sorry Dee for hijacking your thread! Lil - My boyfriend at the time (now my hubby - met back up with him 18 years later) used to wear a two toned suit LOL! Debby |

When we got married in the 1970s, we were given a set of Splayds - forks with rounded sides, like a spoon's. They're very good for food you don't need to cut, like risotto or paella or pasta dishes. CB >|< |
