60's party - help please

[Mrs Ava]

Well, it was a fun day.  I wore a little button up mini dress and knee hi stiletto black boots, plenty of eye makeup and flicky kinda lulu hair.  The MiL wasn't expecting it and as we all jumped out shouting suprise, she was so overcome it brought a tear to her eye! :'(  Was a good day and loved listening to Buddy Holly, Elvis, The Beatles, The Hollies etc.  Thanks for all of your advice, glad you have, and are enjoying this thread.  ;D

Like aqui I was also born after my time 1973 (although it was a good year) I'd have loved to be a teenager in the 60's.

Sounds like a great party EJ - would have loved to see you in your 60's gear :D

Talking of scooters, hub and I used to travel everywhere on ours before we were married (a Lambretta) - great times ;D :)

...true, Les, true.  I understand completely!

One of my fave stories from the sixties is about Paul Simon.  Many people believe he was nominated for an Oscar for "Mrs. Robinson," from "The Graduate."

He wasn't - "We forgot to fill in the forms," said Paul. "You know, it was the ’60s. We just weren’t paying attention."

Somehow, that just sums it up!   :D
