24th April 1979

Tuesday 24
Boring day at college
Bought buttons for my jacket
Went to Fi's

Sam phoned

He says he may have to work Satu
rday
Miserable bugger

I was really looking forward to Saturday


A while ago I featured this girl... Wendy and the
before and after ..... yes no one could tell the difference!! Someone should have told her to have a hair cut and that may have helped!!

I have been trawling through the Jackie Annuals and see that she is their top model (so different to Britain's Top Model not to mention America's Top Model that my teen is hooked on!!!)

Wendy is featured in twice for knitting patterns
her hair has still not been sorted................






I wonder what she is doing now??


p.s. the knitting patterns are available upon request !!

& for those of you who are worried that you maybe spending too much time on the net?? There is a great invention just off the press....... phew !!

DP, if you are good at knitting could you knit me some little card toppers for my homemade cards, coz now i'm back at work it eats into my evening and if you could do them for me that would be great. you know little jumpers, hot water bottles, dresses, vases. nothing too taxing.

my word woman, that didn't take you long, not soon send it and its on!!!!

Do you remember two magazines called "Hi!" and "OK" (not the current celebrity version). They were required teen reading and a bit ahead of their time. They regularly featured a model called Belinda Fewell, who had the bubbly perm so popular around 1976/7. I managed to get a copy of Hi! via ebay recently and it was such fun to rediscover.

Hi Gail
I remember 'Hi' but no 'Ok' (how odd) ... I wasn't allowed them as my Mum thought as you said it was a bit ahead of it's time and too old for me. oooo must nip over to e bay and take a look if there are more to be had..... :-)

Shudder.
