Don’t just take my word for how great the 80s were to grow up.  A fantastic site that I have found is Child of the 1980s.  Now I notice that the webmaster over there, a guy who goes by the name of Big Boo, is a little younger than I – he was seven as the decade dawned whilst I was much much older at ten.  Don’t let that put you off (LOL); my brother is two and a bit years younger than me and he’s ok… well he is now.

Anyway, I have to say that I am highly enamoured with some of Big Boo’s posts – he seems to cover an awful lot of topics: from music (including one of my favourite bands, Madness) through to sweets via tv and film and of course fashion and famous faces.  His is a British view on things too – just like mine.  So, like I said if I do get a little too much for you, get on over there and checkout his post about Spitting Image, required viewing on a Sunday night and great to talk about on Monday mornings in school.
