Was anyone else a member in 1970??
This is me on my way to my friend's 21st!
Do people still stamp their feet in anger?

What knickers? 
I was, but in the sixties. Wore mini's before the invention of tights! Bit dodgy bending down trying not to show stocking tops and suspenders
What petallus said anno
I was clearing out some stuff yesterday and found some old negatives.
Funnily enough I met up with the friend whose 21st it was, only last month,(she lives in Australia so we don't see each other very often) and she was saying she regretted not having any photos of her 21st.
So finding the negatives was serendipity really, and MrA has been happily occupied scanning them all into the computer 
I don't have any pics either , a shame I'd love to show my granddaughters. I remember my mil telling me it wasn't appropriate to wear mini maternity dresses when I was pregnant with my first..
Oh yes, I wore the shortest of skirts and like Agus I had a problem with stocking tops. I bought tights as soon as they went on sale I think I paid £2/19/11 for a pair when my wage was £4 a week
A lot older and possibly slightly wiser Galen
Did anyone else overcome the problem of stockings and minis by sewing stockings to knickers??
More economical than tights in a way, because if one laddered you could just unstitch it and sew on another, rather than chucking out the whole pair!!
I remember doing this at the time that me and my best friend used to buy dye-dyed grandad vests and wear them as very very short dresses
When I saw the heading of the thread I assumed it was going to be about knicker drawers, following on from a conversation at the Exeter meet up recently. Can't remember how we came to be discussing it, but here is proof of my OCD when it comes to tidy underwear. 
Good lord grannyactivist!
I'm afraid that photo propelled me to go and take a picture of mine, which is the polar opposite of yours! 
I think I'm not OCD I'm OTT! I've got three drawers full, one black sets, one paler/coloured sets, and one just of thongs/pants!
Gayour knickers are even graded according to colour! Respect!
NannaAnna that reminds me of DD's knicker arrangements
