Reminiscing

Hmm. Really not sure what to blog about today. Let's see... multi-coloured anodised aluminium picnic cups, holidays at the beach with the sand so hot you had to run across it down to the waves, smelling Mum's good perfume when she and Dad went out to dinner parties, tap shoes repainted and covered in glitter for the end of year concert, The Goodies, pavlova and ice cream, afternoon summer storms, Burt Bacharach albums playing on the stereo, games of Monopoly that went on for days, tucking into the latest Trixie Belden mystery, wanting long straight blond hair like Agnetha, staying up for re-runs of The Sound of Music on the new colour TV, chocolate topped icecream cones at the drive-in cinema, school trips to the Golden Circle pineapple factory. Sigh. I miss the Seventies.
