Best year(s) while living in Accy
 

1970, 17 going on 18 and just started to hit the Accy nightlife on a regular basis. OK what nightlife??? When your allowed into the pubs as an adult the world is yours!!!! Had my 1st tash, string on a lip! Tight fitting flared trousers and tight fitting shirts!!! Long hair. The girls wearing HOTPANTS for goodness sake!!!! Did have some better years but this was the one that stood out for me!! :alright:

Oh dear...looks like senile dementia has set in with you two.

'Hotpants' were 1971, not 1970.

Re: Best year(s) while living in Accy

Re: Best year(s) while living in Accy
 

No..too young..but in later years I removed a few (denim cut-offs by then).

63 fer me, started work could afford me first made to measure suit, music was taking off on a different tangent, could afford 3/4 dance halls a week, flicks a couple of times etc etc, got me motor bike,was just magic, the rest of that decade was great also.:)

Hate to say I did this but just Googled to see about the time frame and it did say "very fashionable in the 70's" My 1st proper girlfried had a pink hotants suit on when I first saw her down the Lone Star!!!!

My first years on the scene was 1962, when jiving was frowned on at Accy Con, Ballroom dancing only, jiving round the sides was regularly howled from the stage, then between 9-30 and 10 the jivers filled the whole floor whilst the Band was on their break. It wasn't long before Monday nights became a cult with Bernard presents, (Bernard was also steward at Stanley Supporters club Jazz club) The Lionel Morton Four, were resident, Wayne Fontana and the Mindbenders, Herman's Hermits, Freddie and the Dreamers, and many many more the good old days:alright:

Instead of reminisce does anyone mind if I cry?

Just as randy but can't seem to pull them as well as I did in the sixties, (even the blind ones have some sort of warning on their sticks).

Please whatever you do don't grass me up by reading this to the really blind, that would ruin what little chance I actually have!:)

Re: Best year(s) while living in Accy
 

50 ??? she wasn't 50!!! Yes she was nifty, we got married 4 years later! Always did and always do get the Lode/Lone Star wrong.

Re: Best year(s) while living in Accy
 

Hotants = nifty.:D hotpants = good gear.;) me own late wife was a lode star lass.:)

Re: Best year(s) while living in Accy
 

Sorry Looked through the thread, can't see anyone mentioning 50 either as a decade or a ladies age, perhaps you should ask Nursie for a fresh pair of underwear and stop getting so worked up? (Bless).

:D
