    Actually Pixiechick,

    I never got stoned. When I was at uni we used to get drunk on cheap sherry - you could go to an off-licence with your own bottle and get it filled up for about 5 shillings - 25p in the new money!

    And I never, ever drink sherry now!!!
    came back on must have felt the love man!
    ann i remember doing that sherry thing ugghh
    i didnt know anyone that practised free love or was stoned all the time
    we just dressed as though we did. I had an afghan coat it stunk hanging up in the hallway of my parents house and the dog used to growl at it
    i looked in the sky and an elephants eye was looking at me from a bubble gum tree what lyrics
    ”Pour yourself a drink, (tea for me now)
    Put on some lipstick
    and pull yourself together”

    Blow on the peace pipe and join in the good vibes. I am having the most politically incorrect bacon sandwiches. Tommorrow i will start to be healthy as per counsellor's orders.

    I had an Afghan coat, as well.

    And a boyfriend who lived in Liverpool and took me to the Cavern to see the Beatles before they were famous.

    And then he dumped me!!!!

    These names are brilliant, Jinny!

    Are you getting them from memories of your youth???
    my friends gran ran a post office in a small village and the hippies used to arrange to have their family allowance paid into there when passing through their kids would have nameslike those but have ordinary surnames like merlin brown!:rotfl:

    The Beatles. Oh my gosh. What an experience. Did you all wear mini skirts?

    So far i have only ever met one person in their 60's that ever got stoned.

    The beach boys, oh my gosh The Doors. It is all coming back.....
