Oh wow that really does bring back memories! Trousers with cummerbund high waists and deep pockets, skinny bodies and energy!

[nomoreheels in reply to Green230461]

Oxford bags. My boyfriend at the time had them in different colours! He was really into soul imports, how I got to know him because I had loads of them.

[Green230461 in reply to nomoreheels]

My husband had a purple suit! His friend could do five spins and called it his Superman move ……..

[nomoreheels in reply to Green230461]

Oooo flash. Hahaha!

[nomoreheels in reply to Green230461]

Baggies. That’s what they were known as, just remembered! The knee part was wider than the ankle, & they were wide! They needed to be to dance tricks.

[Green230461 in reply to nomoreheels]

My knee part is wider than my ankle……

[nomoreheels in reply to Green230461]

Oooch. No bell bottoms for you then. 🥲

[notsochunky in reply to nomoreheels]

I always wanted to go to Wigan Casino. I thought both records were by the same people. I dare anyone to listen to Footsee a couple of times, I will be singing it for days now.

[nomoreheels in reply to notsochunky]

You missed an experience. It's quick enough to learn the song, Footsee yeh & a few neh neh neh neh neh's, & you've got it off pat!

Last Christmas, Wham, 1984. I remember the year because it was our first without Mum & was so apt… the title not the story!

[Green230461 in reply to nomoreheels]

So sorry to hear this.

[nomoreheels in reply to Green230461]

Oh don't be. It's not a sad memory as Mum liked George! I love the song.

[Green230461 in reply to nomoreheels]

Saw him in london on his 25 years goodbye tour outstanding!

[nomoreheels in reply to Green230461]

Lucky you, not envious at all! I never saw I’m live but would have loved to.

[Green230461 in reply to allanah]

Clever Dr Watson!

[Green230461]

Yes it was the opening scene of the video for Last Christmas by Wham. Girls of a certain age wanted to be on that ski lift with George. How wrong were we?Congratulations to springcross madbunny and no more heels🎄

[allanah in reply to Green230461]
