Welcome to the 80s ...
Were you able to walk the dog with a yo-yo?
Did you wear a 'Choose Life' T-Shirt until the fashion did go go?
Were you jealous of the one or two individuals who could get to the second level of Pac Man or master the Rubix Cube?
Or did you get the 'Rubix Cube Cheat Book' and still bomb out like me?!?!

Personally, I dismantled the Rubiks Cube and put it back together with a little force, then managed to mess it up again!

This page is in memorium to the 1980s and all the things we loved about 'the decadent decade'. A tribute to the music, the games, the fads and the entertainment, celebrated with pictures and trivia. The 1980s as seen through rose coloured glasses! The 1980s was a rather rich, and decadent decade in many ways. Its music evolved to incorporate computers, as did its entertainment and the media. We saw the rise of technology, the fall of the disco-ball, the emergance of AIDS, and the crash of the stockmarket.

This site is designed with the hope of being able to look back at the things we enjoyed so much in the 1980s with a dry smile and a touch of love for days gone by, the decade which made us all what we are today.

There is plenty here to look at and read, but even my memory has been maximised looking for more forgotten classics from the decade, so I'd really appreciate any feedback you might have on other segments or ideas you might come up with, so please email me.

With your suggestions and feedback, I'd like to make this site a real trip down memory lane, so email me, bookmark me, or tell a friend about me, but stay tuned to this station!
