New today!

Hello. Literally just joined today. Bit daunted by the massive amount on here to read. So probably my first reason for joining is to meet some virtual friends. I was born in '51 and my teens and beyond were in the wonderful sixties an seventies. A lot of mad (and bad?!) memories to look back on. Now, after a terrible reaction to my first Covid vaccination, walking is a challenge but at least the brain still functions! Hope to chat with some other sixties survivors soon.

Hi there - saw your post & noticed you were born in '51 - me too. How did that happen? I don't think I'm 73 - my body does, but I don't! Don't know if you're male or female - not that it matters. If you feel like a chat just let me know. Best wishes to you.

Hello there. Yup, know what you mean......... still young in my head but the body is ageing....lol.
I was born in '52 and would love to connect with someone who can share memories of the 60s.

Lots of memories from the '60's (& 50's - as a child of course). I was born & brought up in Rochdale, Lancs., but left when I was in my early 20's. Where are you from?

Hiya. I was born and spent my youth and teen years in south east London (Plumstead/Woolwich). I left there to live in Kent when I married (badly!!!) in 1971. I have very fond memories of going to a disco in the Woolwich church crypt. Saturday morning pictures (those were the days!!) and then a swim in my local baths followed by a visit to the chippie for some 'scraps' on the way home was a regular thing.......... Ahh life seemed so much simpler then!!!! Love to hear your memories too.
