What we were doing in 1989
Reenacting the French Revolution and Napoleonic wars. This pic is from July 14. This is the town of Orchies which we helped them with festivities. Funny thing about this photo is just after a wedding party came out the building wondering what was going on. They were good natured about it.

We bought this. Always liked her voice from the Rip Rig and Panic/Float Up CP days so we were really pleased when she struck gold. Ralphadeus: Float Up CP Joy's Address 1984
A short video for the song "I" performed by Animals & Men. 2008

The Life And Times Of Grizzly Adams (The Movie) (1974) Film: American Frontier, Drama
Susan saw this with my bro at the cinema. They got told off for smoking, not because it was no smoking but because the staff thought they were underage.
Ella Langley - Choosin' Texas (Official Lyric Video)
We have been listening to BBC Radio 2 a lot recently and they play this one which I quite like.
