Hi Roger, Golly, you are quick off the mark, aren't you  i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gifYou will have to use your imagination for that one, Roger.... and then I'll be a motorist as well !!! But right back on topic....I looked through my CD collection, and what did I find  A disk from 1987 by Savage Garden !! How about that Andrew ?  I sooo loved that Movie, probably bought the CD in response to it.  Incidentally, it was also the FIRST CD I owned then... 1987 !! Love and laughter, Marianne   Ps. Graeme had to take the pics. !!!  |

It's amazing how many relics from 1987 you have managed to dig up from that "savage garden" of yours!  So you are an archaeologist as well? I hope there are no "skeletons in the cupboard" Marianne, we are expecting plenty of new threads from you now that we know you have a sewing machine handy! Incidentally I liked your reference to Hayley in your the previous post.. i.e. "Princess"... When I started this thread my intention was to keep Hayley in mind all the way through since the year 1987 provides us with a rather significant link to Hayley! Some might argue that this thread should have initiated in the "Other Music" board since we are discussing other music and films... but there is a link!...  Your enthusiasm is much appreciated everyone! Keep it up! BTW Marianne, you are not alone even though the band 'Heart' released a single entitled 'Alone' from their 'Bad Animals' album in 1987. i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gif Now I'm going to have a look at some of those classical music pieces you discussed earlier... Regards, Andrew |

Hi Martin, I noticed your post in Belinda's '1987, What Were You Doing?' thread and thought that part of it was relevant for this thread, so I have copied it in here. i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gifRegards, Andrew The storm is certainly an event I'll never forget and in particular the widespread damage caused to property and countryside. Driving down the M23 to Brighton was like seeing the aftermath of an atomic bomb with large areas of forest and woodland completely flattened. Nearer home a good friend of mine lost the roof off his bungalow and also it took me a whole day to clear the debris from my garden. My other unforgettable memory from 1987 was seeing my favourite A.L. Webber musical "The Phantom of the Opera" in London for the first time (it had been open just six months). Michael Crawford and Sarah Brightman as the Phantom and Christine were superb. Martin |

Hi Folks. There was a story of a granddad telling his grandson about things he had collected during the war. he tells him of a gas mask which he shows him. The boy is wide eyed at this so he shows him some used shells and a bayonet. The boy is amazed. Granddad then says he still has his old army issue greatcoat. The boy asks "where is it ?" Granddad says "I put it in the attic, we use it to cover the tank during the winter" The little boy almost collapses and says: "You have a tank in the attic and you show me used shells and a bayonet, that's what I call keeping the best till last, can I see the tank now. I'm going to look in my linen press to see if I can find a princess or something useful comet |

Hi there, I just discovered another quaint find in my Linen cupboard !! Believe it or not, I must have been a fan of Aled Jones in 1987 ! This is of course a repeat post, but maybe someone would like to read through Aled Jones's Thread as well. I remember his beautiful voice as a young boy, hence his LP in my *archives* as Andrew put it once !! I am a renewed fan of Aled since his lovely duets with our Hayley, no less !! i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gifLove, Marianne  Click below & you can read all: well, nearly all....1987 reads the date!! farm1.static.flickr.com/149/432004056_8246bb672a_b.jpg |
