The days that were

We relied on pen and paper

And emails vaguely existed,

We loved uplifting music and craft that was wonderfully depicted.

We watched the ‘Hawaii 5o’

And Blake 7, and loved playing vinyl on a record player,

And love was so transparent, and we hardly had a naysayer.

We lived to tell the tale 

We looked to make wrong into right,

Not like now when we can’t say what we truly think

As those times we laughed so hard it was natural to chuckle when we blinked.

We played music of a upbeat nature to lift our soul

Yes, things weren’t always perfect but we knew how to take control.

We watched ‘Sapphire and Steele’ and ‘The Avengers’ with Emma Peel and Steed

And we took life seriously but not to the extent we saw everything as dramatic, you know? That kind of need?

“80s, 70s and before… when life was that little bit more fun”
