I never liked loons - seriously cramped my bits. So I had the hipster jeans with wide flairs.

An ex MOD Parker and a series of Lambretta’s from an Li 150 to GT200 and an SX200. Then I saw the light and moved to Motorbikes - Norton’s and Triumphs - an AJS 500 single and a wonderful Velocette Viper 350 that to my shame I never appreciated just what a lovely bike that was.

My kids laugh at how we dressed then

I dispair that modern hairstyles seem to be the extreme short back and sides I hated and rebelled against. So yes - I did have a David Cassidy style haircut.
