7th January 1979

Sunday 7
Got up at 12.00
YMCA =Number 1 (couldn't find a decent original versions but here are 2 'different' ones)




Did Sociology essay (I guess I started on the 3rd (page 1). Oh those happy days of hand-writing essays before we had computers, crossings out, writing many pages then re-thinking the whole thing again and re - writing eee those were the days ... NOT. Nurse Myra I looked for the essay on vinegar, whilst in the loft, but it is no more I am afraid (the penny has only just dropped on that subject btw hee hee) )



Phoned Sam
My brother is in Dubye ? (yes ok Dubai we didn't travel a lot in my day) & then Frankfurt
He should be home tomorrow, thank goodness.

(he went out to Iran on the 12th December 1978 just as the uprising started in Tehran. I have been listening to the advice about not travelling to Kenya just now. It would seem that there was not so much public information then about travelling abroad in times of hostility)
Sam phoned at 9.00
My brother is going out with his girlfriend again

The Chinese man singing "YMCA" isn't so sexy, but those other foreigners wearing them tight gym shorts sure do make me hot!

NM....... very clever observation :-)
I am afraid we are not one of the interbred Northern folk you sometimes read about in the press

Of course we peabrains have high standards - goddesses fail miserably!

(I've now gone into hiding and disguised your blog so the TG doesn't see that - tee hee)
