I’ve just been looking at old photos, and have seen one of me from fifteen years ago, wearing a jacket I still wear!

I have a crocheted shawl bought in Athens in 1970 used for babies in early 1980s. don't like to send to charity shop.

A dress from when I was 10 years old. I wore it in a dancing competition. 51 year old.

I have a pretty blouse in shades of cream, beige, rust, white and pale green diamonds, bought in C&A in 1989. It washes and irons and comes up looking like new - all I've done is take the shoulder pads out!

I took the shoulder pads out of a dress and the foam inside them had turned into powder!

Probably a sheepskin coat made to measure for me in Cyprus in 1980. Don't wear it any more, wonder why?
