Apparently people are taking to social media to post memories of their youth in 5 words. Some examples are:
'Trolls meant something totally different.'
'I had a Blockbuster membership.'
Mine would be :
'Attached to my Perdio transistor radio.'
What about you?

Blossom, that's sad!

Les Dawson.

Big puffy skirts with stiff underskirts so that when you sat down they went up into your face.

White lipstick and nail varnish.

Whistling boys.

Liking pimply boys with funny haircuts like ducks backsides.
