Fantastic!

I remember seeing ABC at Knebworth supporting Robbie. Oh the shame of being one of only few who knew the words.

Didn't dress like that in the 80's,was a right tomboy me! Liked the music though. There were loads of folks all done up though,with short rara skirts over leggings with fluorescent leg warmers and big bows in their hair.......and that was only the blokes There was even a Madonna bride in full rig out identical to hers,even down to the mole on her face.

Sorry,no pics taken.

They were great,so were Go West and EVERYBODY knew all the words. It was a fantastic day out,the weather was great so in between acts we sat on the boardwalk next to the river having a few drinks;later on we even had fish and chips outside with some more drinks,brill. sitting remembering back and watching the outfits going by was so much fun,a right girlie day out.

Hi Fi

Just read your update. As Persephone says Hope the bbq with NZ family went well. We had Gary's side of the family and some friends farewell do at the weekend. Went well,weather held but my MIL kept coming with us as we were saying goodbye to folks and she started crying every time. Annoyed me a bit as I was managing to hold it together. Really upset me when we were saying cheerio to our oldest friends as I wanted to say some private things but couldn't cos she was thereAnyhow,all went well and we got loads of money as gifts so going to change it to $ Have a lunchtime drinkie on me

Stoof, are you here yet? I've lined up some "welcome to NZ" drinks for you and the other Stoofs:drinkwine :

Phyl, I hope you get a chance to say all you need to without the MIL being around. It is so hard to say goodbye to people when you are moving so far away and don't know when you'll see them again.
It won't be long now and you'll be here. A word of warning, it is freezing here, bring plenty of woollies. I'm finding typing hard my fingers are soooo cold-could still manage a glass of Merlot though
Oooh maybe a whisky and green ginger wine, now that would warm me up, bartender a large one please

karonious
