This attic clearing lark is uncovering some gems from the past. I found a diary from 1968 when Id just left school at the tender age of 16. Cant believe my first wage from Lewiss was £8 11s 4d (£8.57) a week, petrol for my Lambretta SX150 scooter was 7 shillings a gallon (35p!!), latest film releases were Whats new Pussycat? with Tom Jones. Planet of the apes with Charlton Heston and Barbarella starring a young and beautiful Jane Fonda. And records I bought included Jimi Hendrix Electric Ladyland and the Beatles double white lp. 1968 looked like a bloody good year to be alive in ;-)
