Crikey! Sounds of the 70s now, looks like Soul night!
Thanks btf will have a look.

N1 Foxy never seen that before. I had a Beatles suit btw.

This is worth recording, SR,

aka so did I ffs, what were we thinking!!

Well I thought I was the real deal.

Moved onto Frayed denims with a cheesecloth shirt and Cuban heels.
Thank feck I don't have any photos of that era.

In my defense grey jacket black trousers (not strictly a suit)Cuban heeled boots from drury lane.

Cheesecloth shirts, will they ever come back.

The man with the golden voice Curtis Mayfield!

My missus has photos, we were 15 when we met and takes great delight in showing them so I am told.

A young Michael Jackson before surgery, handsome dude he was too!

Paisley shirt  corduroy jacket, knitted tie ...

No wonder the girls swooned - mind you we did rather splash it all over in them days!

mememe, Jesus on a Friday!! I once bought it, Henry  Cooper you bastard.!!!

****.  I thought you were a woman btf.  Not that it mattered.  Oh well, perhaps you're on the more empathic part of the emotional spectrum.

On reflection did wonder why we had more than the odd spat.

Oh Helen, many of our age had the odd splat dreaming of you.  In reality, doubt you would have been a bundle of fun.  Too uptight.  Like most of the 60s.

As for Brut ...

How times have changed.

" The fab 4 were 4th on the bill for her 1963 tour"

Helen Shapiro caught the flu on the final week of that tour and didn't appear for 2 nights. And although The Beatles were just a band from Liverpool with a big hit (Please Please Me) they still didn't top the bill in her absence. Instead, Danny Williams became the headline act for 2 days.

Why didn't you just ask, the odd spat may have been misunderstood banter on my/our  part, or maybe I was p1ssed , either way I apologise, I have always regarded you as on of the brighter light on here, be lucky.

ONE of the brighter LIGHTS*
