Living in a fantasy. Yeah!
As is its wont, BBC Radio 2 has been going overboard over the last couple of weeks to recognise the arrival of the new year 2026 by going backwards, marking "all the sixes" - 1966, 76, 86, 96 and even 2006 in especially-themed shows.
As it's the end of another week [albeit a very odd one for me after my leg operation on Monday, having yet to set foot outside the front door, and being signed-off work], let's bring to the fore, shall we, a remarkably catchy number that I hadn't heard in ages, until it re-emerged into my conciousness courtesy of one of those "single-year-focused" shows.
From this week forty years ago in 1986, here's a song that just about encapsulated the exact words I would have been saying to any man with a dick and a pulse at the time...
Thank Disco the 80s It's Friday!
Have a good weekend, dear reader...
I never did go through that let’s go all the way phase. Well, only with an extremely limited chosen few. I wonder what I’d do if I could relive those days. I’d probably have a lot more fun! Hope your recovery is going well.
ReplyDeleteConversely, I was "the good time that was had by all" in the 1980s and 90s..! Jx
DeleteYou're lucky to remember the 90's.
DeleteGood times! Jx
DeleteOh I just hate when I'm in a public shower and that happens.
ReplyDeleteWell, end of another week, the first long week in three weeks. It was relatively painless with a few gin and tonics. I have a follow appointment with my oral next week, so it will be a four-day work week, mind you, the day off is in the middle of the week though.
Painless is good.
DeleteFancy making an appointment for oral! In my heyday, we'd get it when and where we could... Jx
That made me spit my coffee!
DeleteI don't spit, I swallow. Jx
DeleteStop it! you're hurting my keyboard
DeleteLet's not mention the damp patch.
DeleteFrom the coffee, I meant... Jx
Gosh that tune was a blast from the past (please don't say 40 years ago again).
ReplyDeleteAs for the fabulous GIF, the eyes say it all.
Forty years! There, I said it. Jx
DeletePS The gif made me smile - and also brought back a few happy memories 😍
