I'm sorry, I think the eightees was a loathesome decade.

I went round the place dressed as what I can only describe as a gay pirate - skintight trousers, pointy cowboy boots, flouncy shirt a la Lord Byron, waistcoat, silk bandana and what effectively amounted to a teased mullet.

And I looked alright compared to some people in cropped sports coats and trousers flared at the top.

Jesus. Talk about the decade where fashion sense just COLLAPSED.
Sageghost
Bless the 80's!

I could relate to most of those things Emmy. The other thing I used to do was watch HEAPS of cricket - I was addicted. I will never forget the controversial events which occurred at the MCG in 1981...the famous underarm incident at the World Series Cup final between Australia and NZ.

shame Greg, shame
Kismit
Shhhhhhhh............ Sageghost they still arn't over that unsure.gif
