1950s / 60s / 70s Era

Hi everyone Relaxed 

I'm new here so just wanted to say hi and hopefully make some new friends with similar interests.

Although I'm in my early 30s, I've always had a bit of an obsession over the 1950s, 60s and 70s era's from music, fashion/ vintage clothing, sewing patterns, crochet patterns/books, hairstyles and of course the VW Campervan and Beetle.

Does anyone else like these era's?

Share your experiences, hobbies and interests or what songs you like from the 50s, 60s or 70s. I would love to hear them Blush

  • Although I share no nostalgia for past decades (that I have lived through), preferring the present, I thought I'd share some family photos from the 1950s and 1960s.

    Life was tough in the past, for both sexes, but it was hard for women to work because of the expectations of society but also because domestic tasks were such hard work and took up such time.

    Women were expected to marry and raise a family even if they didn't want to (which was true of my mother).

    The 1970s continued the work that the pill began in the 1960s, liberating women including by domestic applicances, but in a miriad other ways.

  • Don't worry about fluff like that too much.  It's always good to get it right if you can, but don't let fear of bad spelling or grammar stop you from  expressing yourself.

    You might have noticed that I stuck with your aloud rather than allowed because it wasn't the important bit of what we were sharing together.

    And for the record....your English and grammar doesn't stink at all - at least, not to to my nose, eyes nor brain.

  • Sorry I meant allowed*

    My english and grammar stinks

    I try to focus on my writing and try hard but it makes me tired and frustrated cause I can't get it right

    I do try to be Internet safe tho

    If you are in any doubt.....then DON'T.

  • I wish I could share my own pics

    But I don't think I'm aloud to Disappointed
