I got a great idea off someone on here about doing a "relieve your youth" hamper - I think it could be fun, and a great addition to Mum and Dad's present....
BUT............... I need some help off some "vintage" moneysavers (!) Mum n Dad were born in the 1950's so grew up in the 60's and 70's.
Can you help me with some ideas of :
a)sweets
b)music (apart from the beatles)
c)magazines
d)toys
anything else you can think of that you think would make a great "relieving your youth" hamper - a lovely idea...if I have any ideas to put in it! I am going to have a look on e-bay but would LOVEEEE some help off you inspirational lot!!!!
PLEAAAAAAASE!!! :money: :money: :money: :money:

The Works are selling calendars where each month has a picture from a different Jackie magazine cover....it is not of more importance than daily life, which I have an enduring wish to make as useful and beautiful as possible.

A friend of mine (wonder what her name was...!??!) got a Jackie Album as a present (although I wonder if it's more 70's than 60's??)
Anyway, it was absolutely hilarious - very dated and non-pc, but extremely entertaining!0 -
good ideas thanks!
