I miss partying in the 70s. The fashion. Platform shoes and bellbottom jeans. Halter neck and handkerchief dresses and the music, disco lights, smoking in clubs. I miss the way I looked back then and the fact that I never truly appreciated my youth.

dollar drink nights at kicks night club
stone wash jeans
my 80s mullet which would leave michael bolton for dead!
dunlop vollies
my beloved desert boots(rest in piece)
atari(local asteroids champion)
yo - yo competitiona at the local shops (loop the loop vewwyy eassyyyy).
petrol at 41.9 back in 87.
my water bed(do they still make those things?)
I dont miss the typewriter, Jeez Whiz but pounding on those old things really hurt the fingertips,
but miss the ashtray that used to sit besides it...
I do miss the "less stress" and more fun that life afforded, everything was taken lightly, hours at work were less, and employment was easy.
I miss Janis Joplin... her raunchy voice..
I miss John Lennon & George Harrison, among many others..
I miss that life that maybe we could have had, if technology had not moved so quickly...
I feel like too much has changed in too short time, and if I compare the way our life has moved, it doesn'tseem to synch with the way nature goes slowly ...
I hope I am making sense...

I know and didn't we look sh**T hot and knew it
Merriweather: That has made me laugh... I remember driving from about 17 til 22 without one... It really was not that important back then, and the cars were old and slow, and ran on the smell of an oily rag...
Glad I am not the only silly one back then yeah and no one had a care in the world I wanna be young again

Yep. I remember the old cars. We spent more time pushing them than driving them. It used to take me 45 minutes to get to work and 6 hours to get home coz I always seemed to break down on the motorway. I drove an old humber 91. Solid as and heavy as. I used to have a fake leg hanging out of the boot. Good for a laugh.
Wow, drinking in Surf City with Billy thorpe and the aztecs, parties in the cross. 18c for a 10 ounce beer in the lounge. $3.07 for a bottle of rum. 10c for a packet of smokes at sea. Lots of girls and good times. waking to see nothing but sea in all directions. Working underwater. Great memories.
The things I really miss though are different. A simpler more innocent world. Kids able to walk to school safely. Being able to go out and leave the door open. Music before it was blowing out eardrums. Being able to sleep in the streets of Kings Cross. Cabbies taking a young sailor back to the ship for what ever change we had. and most of all, HEALTH and FITNESS.

Woo hoo! We sure did Curly. This is a cool thread that has brought back lots of memories. Dancing to the "Bustop" Getting into nightclubs at 16.Didnt need much money coz some bloke would always buy you a drink. Getting booted out by the bouncer. Running for cover when the cops arrived, then going back the next night to do it all over again.

Different times, I recall a mini that I owned and only ever drove a few times sober. That was in 66 and it didnt seem to be a crime then.

Yep, it was a different world back then. It felt safe somehow.
astoneinariver: yeah blood sweat and tears, sherbert, rock on ,hard to find a sober person in that fest ha ha
Yeah Bondi Life savers Club "Rose Tattoo" still the same today and "Marshia Hines" when she was a rock chick unknown. She was a wild rock singer. yeah kids were much the same as today re party on and festivals, but not the beatings / guns and knives anger the way they are now. Guess everyone was off their face and talking peace n love n all that jazz man back then.
