First Post..lets Go

Well here it is at last...I've been talking about doing something like this for a while and here we go....

My name is Gordon Michael Dodd (need to use the middle name more often), born in 1963 in the West Midland, England.

What's this blog all about? well...

Born in the 60's (that may be another blog and the 80's, 90's..) and growing up in 70's with lots of great memories of strange and wonderful things that was part of my life and probably like many 35's to 55's (nice wide range) will relate too.

Topics that need to be shared, like;

Why were our trousers so wide?

Orange wall paper!

Brown underpants with cream piping and matching vest!

TV shows with wobbly scenery!

Chocolate bars that used to be bigger!

Why power cuts were so much fun!

Escape from Colditz and other fun games.

and countless more...

I'll also be digging around my old photo's to upload and share.

Watch this space for updates and feel free to add comments and memories to bounce around.

Have a smiley day
