1974

Don't remember a lot about 1974.

I remember thinking that there was a perception out there that the Bay City Rollers were the biggest group on the planet. I didn't like them myself. There was this boy I knew called Adrian who wore horrible flares with tartan trims and a tartan scarf. He also used to smoke and light his own farts which I thought was appalling and common...

My musical influences this year were: Britten's Young Person's Guide (what a girly swot!); The Wombles and Olivia Newton John, cos she represented Britain in the Eurovision Song Contest with Long Live Love.

I also joined the choir of Holy Apostles Church. It's very different today, very happy clappy. This picture is from a couple of years later, when my brother joined too:
