The blind nostalgia the 70's were the best never ever takes into to account the bloody awful fashions. Acrylic bed sheet electrocutions scarred me mentally as a child to the point in older years unless it's Egyptian cotton my arse won't sleep in it.

I'm 71. Back then I bought my shoes from Faith Shoes. I a pair of silver ankle boots and a really wicked pair of green and cream platform shoes. Never once fell over. Baggy trousers and a matching floral shirt and tie. Later I became a hippie. That's life and so far a real good life.
