JUST ADDED "LETTERS" - YOUR COMMENTS ABOUT THE SITE AND MEMORIES OF SHEPSHED - LETS HAVE MANY MORE OF THEM PLEASE!!! use the form at the bottom of the page to get in touch!
 
A expose of life and growing up in an East Midlands town in the 1980's.....

After much work and deliberation, my second book SHEPSHED MCMLXXX is launched as a website!
 
Although I was not born in "Sheppy" and don't live there anymore, I spent my formative years there growing up under the shadow of Thatcher, Reagan, Brezhnev and Duran "bloody" Duran!

The site charts my time at school in Shepshed in the 1980's, St Botolph's Primary and then Shepshed High School.
 
I remember the pastimes and laughs we had, unlike the NERD generation of today, we had to get off our backsides and did not have things such as Playstations, DS's and Wii's to amuse us.
 
I remember the music of the times, the fashions, the TV, major events and of course....THE GIRLS!
