The 80s weren't all THAT bad...

Yeah, okay the pin-up bubbles skirts and neon shoes with-handbag-and-belt-to-match was pretty fekking awful!  The teased spiral permed hair and wearig only one earing was huge!

My Boerewors and I were watching Hot Tub Time Machine with John Cusak,  the other night which took the cast back to the 80's which was really funny to see. The movie is a brain-dead one but full of giggles and hysterical one-liners.  The terrible fashion, the ridiculous hair do's, the bright colours...

We also watched the TV show 'Allo 'Allo on Series Channel the night after that, which had me in stitches....both of these shows reminded me of some of the stuff that I enjoyed watching on telly back from the 80s.
