A Blast from my Past

As this blog is a series of posts about my life experiences, I thought I’d post a series of photographs from my early ‘twenties which my boyfriend at that time has just sent me.  It was quite a surprise, I really didn’t see myself as attractive as I was at that time, but these photos did bring back good memories. for me.

Me and my flatmate in 1970 - I have no idea why we decided to get ourselves togged out in nightwear or why I decided to pop a tea cosy on my head and look totally mad!

    1. I never saw myself as trendy either, had no self-confidence in those days. Quite surprised to see those photos after all this time.
