Try finding a photo of yourself from 50 years ago and you'll soon realise that it was a different world. Some people find it scary to recall events from 50 years ago that still seem fresh in their minds. But think of all the things you've done since then.

Funnily enough a group of us were talking about the immense changes we have seen in our short lives.

I ask my nephews where they store the staggering number of photos they take.. they dont. I have 3 banana boxes (remember those) full of photos. My dad has abed drawer full!

Remember listening to Caroline and RTL at my Grans in Norfolk in the very early '80s 8)

Radio 2 are doing a fair bit as I understand it... ironic given that those doing the reflecting were key in the whole saga :D

May I recommend this piece of whimsy...

I've recently reconnected with people from my teens via facebook, and actually met up. I find that I have very little in common with them. Totally different lives over the last decades.
