I wouldn't try to predict fashion, because without the chav's and the tartan crap, it has all been very much conservative since then.

Four inch Cuban heels, shoulder lenght hair, flaired trousers, silk flowers in the lapel, mixican moustache, the list is endless, getting quite embarrassed just thinking about it

I would never be a door whore at a nightclub again, whilst wearing a white, faux fur coat, flowers in my hair, a la Diana's bridesmaids, carrying a regal sized handbag, from which I'd occasionally take out a pork chop, to nibble on.

I wouldn't go to a shabby dancehall in Wigan, somewhat misnamed "The Casino" at 1am on Sunday morning and dance right through to 8am...in fact, I couldn't these days!
