Having been watching channel 5 tonight and the moments that made you cringe during the eighties, I have to say, so many things on the programme I remembered and god, did I cringe. That said, they had Mr Fish and the hurricane at number 1 with shell suits at number 2 – for me, shell suits definitely should have been number 1.
Anyway, it did make me think about stuff that I cringe about from my youth.
Does anyone look back and think – “why, why the hell did I do that†and that cringe moment comes on.
So come on, spill the beans, what was it.
Why on earth I am posting this just before a munch heaven knows, but I will tell you mine.
Back in the good old days, I was into rock music big time and when frequenting what was in those days disco’s rather than night clubs, often a rock song was played.
My cringe moment – Me, in the middle of the dance floor with my imaginary guitar, doing the head shaking bit with all those disco fever kids looking on bewildered.

the arguement used to be duran or spandau ballet?
for me, it was neither, it was depeche mode
Noooo the argument was Duran or Wham .... then I moved onto DMI thought it was The Jam or The Clash or am I still living in the 70s?
Yeah they were a little earlier I think. My big brother was into them.

Yeah they were a little earlier I think. My big brother was into makes me feel good!
Quote by Abilene
the jam was an awesome band
as too was the clash
I do have to agree ... although wasn't into them in their heyday ... was too busy wearing leg-warmers and big hair !!!Deary me, leg warmers. Mind you I will admit to having a ready supply of hairspray in the 80s. The pictures have been burnt.

Let's bring it back on track......
Late 1980's. Me. White jeans. White T-shirt. White "blouson" jacket. Dunlop Green Flash. Middle of the nightclub dance floor doing the dance from Saturday Night Fever - badly.
In my defense I was very, very drunk
obviously your party trick, i saw you do that at your last munch
I've probably got too many things to be able to pick one out.
I know when I was very young I asked my Aunty why her teeth stick out and she looked like a horse. Think I spent the rest of the evening in bed
Getting caught with a porno mag under my bed at 15 didn't go down well. I forgot my Dad needed to mend the leg of the bed I'd broken
ops:
Ians brother walked in on me wanking Ian once, yet again, I was only 15 :oops:
I don't have time to continue and probably best I don't but I'll leave you with a picture I've posted before which now makes me cringe

Oh hell Dawnie, no go on, please continue - I am in stitches here
:D :D Oh bugger - I will have to come back to this - I should have left 15 minutes ago!
:bolt:
OMG Dawnie, that pic could have been of me !
Big hair, even bigger shoulder pads, those horrible baggy bleached jeans that made your arse look like a barrage balloon ( these days my arse really IS the size of a barrage balloon
) Crap music with very few exceptions, jacket sleeves rolled up to your elbows, shite tv, poodle rock and my first husband.
Plenty for me to be embarrassed about................and no, there is no surviving photographic evidence :dry:
