Yep, it's never dated.

1979 was the first election where I was really engaged, even though I couldn't vote. I was a big, raving....Liberal (maybe I was intrigued by the fact that their leader had recently been caught in a homosexual scandal, who knows...).

I remember that SuperTramp's "Logical Song" was in the charts around that time, with the line about "calling you a radical, a liberal.."

It all seems so long ago. But you've done rather well for yourself since then.

I can't believe that it was 30 years ago!

And, I would have been incredulous if you'd told the 15 year old me that I would be in the land of fruits and nuts 30 years later. I've been very fortunate, touch wood.

Talk about deadpan! She did bring down the house, though. Thanks for posting this.

A great memory. And of course it was a big year for France celebrating the bicentenary of the revolution. Little did we know a revolution was brewing in eastern Europe that year too.
