I think it's pretty darling myself and hey, if one like this existed with lil' faces, I'd surely have to send it to you. Thank you! Love that can inspire you. Hope I can do so next week with blanket. I have an idea already ...and if you had Instagram, you could tune into my little stories and music selection that will go with it. You will recall it from the old days I am sure. :) Michaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17712046924863763290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5121812607429910170.post-46987651585103954422017-09-29T16:25:52.669-07:002017-09-29T16:25:52.669-07:00Ha, you know, I don't miss it either...as I no...Ha, you know, I don't miss it either...as I noted, it was harder those days for catching songs you like.

We had one come to think of it but think we sold it when we went to the UK! <br />Yes, I loved the more peaceful times too, ironic being that it was the cold war but generally for sure people were more civil. The level of discord and insults used for crass humour now saddens me no end ...and I 'm not even that old! Thank you, Andrea.

Better, or smarter perhaps. <br /><br />We ahd TOTP (Top of the Pops) every Thursday ngiht at 7:00 but that was on TV. I can't recall any countdown on radio but am sure there were many. Instead I would listen to Capital radio, hoping to catch a song and often spending the entire time finding nothing I liked..even in the glorious 80's too! :) I have to say though, I think the BRitish 80's music was WAY better than America's which was more dominated by big hair metal than electro synth bands like we had. :) We of course had the biggest band of that time, The Jam, which hardly anyone here has heard of even to this day! Wowza.

It's that kind of thing I was referring to as not missing. Ha. Yes, thank you--the background was indeed meant to help add that 60's/50's retro style feel as well as the swirls too...as I depicted on my little instagram video if you happened to have seen that? :)Michaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17712046924863763290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5121812607429910170.post-1009935170681187092017-09-29T16:13:21.202-07:002017-09-29T16:13:21.202-07:00Yes, it's those annoyances that I don't mi...Yes, it's those annoyances that I don't miss and which made some things actually less simple than now but indeed life gets more and more complicated.

We didn't have one like that growing up, but I did win a transistor radio when I was a teenager - before FM - and remember going through batteries like crazy. My kids had boom boxes and now we just have a clock radio in the kitchen for emergencies. This was a pretty thought-provoking theme.
