I always feel so fortunate to have been a teenager in the 60's living in Sheffield. What more could we have wanted than places like the Mojo, where we danced to the best music ever & saw all the very best bands for a couple of quid. Then there was the fashion....the bellbottom Jeans, the leather coats, uni scarves, platform shoes, knee length boots (some times white) PVC rain coats & of course meeting our mates out side Peter Robinson's. We had it all didn't we?

 

remember chelsea girl on king st, for all our clothes. what a great shop it was.loved every minuet of the 60s

So true what you could do with a small amount of money .I decided that at 22 I should settle down after sowing my wild oats through the sixties .It was now 1971 and I bought a house 3'500 quid and it was the first time I had some responsibilties in my life.I could not sleep because of all this debt ,I mean 3000 quid in debt.Now I wish I had bought half a dozen at that price.
