Massive platform shoes! Glam Rock! Brilliant!

The 80s for me as well. Left school, got first paying job, met Wife, two tone trousers, Madness, Sgt Harry Makepeace, Not the nine o clock news, Aliens 1st night at the Manchester Odeon, Talking Heads. Pocket Simon, ZX Spectrum, Demon driver. The 12" single, Transvision Vamp and Propaganda at Salford Uni, Man City 10-1 Huddersfield Town. 5-1 Derby win. Great days, I could go on.

Re: Best decade, 70's, 80's or 90's?

I voted 80s because I was a child of the 80s and have so many fond memories of the toys, the cartoons, and the crisps and sweets that you just can't get anymore...

In saying that tho', I actually hate the 80s for its electronic music and god awful fashion - everything about the look and sound of the 80s just angers me!

I find it hard to be nostalgic about the 90s as it doesn't seem so long ago yet!

Hey Stu

I always though that long hot summer was '76 and Silver Jubilee was the summer after?

I've voted for the '80s.

Much as I'm also partial to the '70s, I was born in the early part of that decade so I couldn't really appreciate it as much as the '80s, the decade I grew up in.

I think definitely the seventies, I can just about remember them, but they were good.

The 70's for me. By the 80's, I was expected to grow up and be sensible and responsible!

[Lothar-gr]

80s ... just because i cant remember the 70s too well ... you see i was born in 1975

I would say it would have to be the 70's good music, black and white telly, didnt see a colour one till 1974, Sunday afternoon visiting grand parents, waching the golden shot, Kojak, colditz, who do you do. Hours down the park with your mates, on your bikes, in the wood playing war, buying sweets from the "penny tray" or buying one ounce of sherbert, portion of chips two bob and a penny worth of crackling (that was enough to feed a small third world country), saturdays in woolworths working out which airfix model to buy, or boxes of airfix ho/oo scale soldiers with your pocket money,and completing it that same afternoon, Doing a paper round, and people giving you a christmas box, cub scouts doing "bob a job", getting your first saturday job, that paid £2.50 per day. School dinners with lumpy mash potatoe, and semilena frog sporn pudding. Queens silver jubilee during the hottest summer i can remember, and best of all flared trousers.

Has to be them 80's for me! Some great times knocking about with me mates playing footy in the streets (it was allowed then!). Does anyone else miss being able to play footy or cricket or anything else for that matter in the streets? I swear if I was allowed to out to play now I would lose loads of weight just running around!

[dondons69]
