27th September 1972


A strange colour combo? I wonder if she can fly unaided with that collar??

Thursday 27
Not a bad day at college
Told my home lecturer I was discontented with the Business Studies lecturer.
Finished my Sociology essay.

It took all night.
I am not going to Stafford this weekend
Cos Sam wants to do some work.

He is working at the Woolpack tonight.



It is amazing how your writing changes with time. From those initial scribbles on a page as a young child, to learning 'joined up writing'. I was taught around aged 10 to write like this (but a bit more swirly than this example).



To the adaptations you make as teen to how you where taught to write to the writing as an adult.
Today it hit me hard just how little I actually do put pen to paper. I bought something in a shop and their chip 'n
' pin was broken so I actually had to replicate the signature that appears on my debit card.. combined with a dodgy shoulder I am surprised they didn't call in the fraud squad... I found it so difficult to sign my name.
God help when I am a 'one armed bandit' next month .. there is no way I will be able to sign.

Thought I would post a few 70s pictures tonight......



Can anyone tell me.. in the 70s where did men put their 'meat and two veg'? It certainly isn't obvious in these pictures!!!
now if you could sew would you ... and I mean would you make an outfit like this??



so ripe for a caption ' I so what to kiss you for this Mr Carter '... 'oh ok but no tongues!'

rather suspect hand communication from our right wing leader and husband at the time lol

I must mention in this post today that Paul Newman died today. He was a household name through out my growing up years. In 1979 he competed at La Mans as he was a keen racing driver. I particularly loved him in 'Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid' .. he was noted as saying about having affairs as 'why both with hamburger when you can have steak at home' a classic line.
He had a good innings aged 83... a legend indeed ...

I so love this song
