Bye bye children… bye bye!
Ok, so as most of u probably know… I'm completely obsessed with the 1980’s. Proud to be born in that good ‘ol year of ’83, it’s been my mission to try and remember as much nostalgia as possible, i.e. TV shows, fads, crazes etc….
As a baby, in-between ritual beating my Yorkshire Terrier to death with my boots (j/k!), I was freq. Plonked in front of the TV… hence my fascination with animation, cartoons and 1980’s!.
Please mail me to add more if u can think of them. It took me a whole afternoon to think of these.
