summer of 89 I had 2 outfits:

1. jeans, metal t-shirt, leather jacket (for drinking jack daniels and/or special brew)

2. flouro lycra (for biking)

Don’t think I would fit in any of that no, but I was pretty skinny then what with all the biking and jack daniels and everything.

But summer of 90 was all baggy ravey so I’m sure I would fit into all that (even had a pair of dungaries)

double postage

i was 4.

I could try?

that reminds me, I still have all my metal t-shirts from my 6th form and uni days in a suitcase in the loft. The jeans died a death but I do have the black suede winklepicker shoes with zips and buckles.

retro-mania!

Well, I don’t have much left from 20 years ago, maybe my DrMartens and a lovely bright red Castelli top which turned up again last month after being mis filed in a house move ten years ago. Oh and a dinner suit I bought in 87 still fits. Should I wear them all together?

That’s what happens dgoab

Oi stop it 👿

i thought so, i knew there was a reason why i’ve been preoccupied with turning 30 in 6 months time. :-S

in 1989 i weighed 18 stone, with a 52” chest and it was muscle
in 2009 i weigh 20 stone with a 54” chest and it is relaxed muscle
in 1989 i was a 36” waist
in 2009 i am a 42” waist
so on top yes but down below ……no………….. 8)

Apparently it’s even worse when you get to the Birthday of Doom which is 35. 1 month left….

Yes.

Can do 17 years. Still the same shape, size and weight as I was when I was 15. 🙂

“Apparently it’s even worse when you get to the Birthday of Doom which is 35”

pah!!! Mere youngster – I’ll be in vet class next year and don’t even mention the grand vet combined age group for Polaris next year – eek!

for me it’s 35 years…

In 1989, I was 12 and just about to start my second year at Big School. I don’t think I’d fit into my old uniform though.

When I left uni in 1999 I weighed 10.5 stone and I’m 11.5 stone now. All muscle though 😉

Now there’s a thought. I must get my jodhpurs out, they’re navy blue.
Glad you spelt it for me Mike 🙂

Has anyone kept the same haircut though?

Ironcally I’ve got the same cut I had in 1991 when I joined the Army..

Only this time its because I have gone bald natually, not courtesy of an over zelous Barber..

Im not sure Id want to get into some of the stuff I was wearing 20 yrs ago… 😕

I’ve just realized i was 17 twenty years ago, . . .

I am now depressed!!

39yrs old still the same shape as I was twenty yrs ago. w30 9stone… so yep, could still wear the same stuff but I haven’t got any of it !

Kev

No chance. I was 14 and a shortarse at only 6’2″ 🙂

Only got the spelling right because my browser has a built in spull chucker 😉

(Can’t believe no one has commented on MrsFlash in jodhpurs yet…)

Must…. resist….

a built in spull chucker

Didn’t know you were kiwi, Mike!

I came across a set of passport photos a couple of days ago, taken when I was about 17. I think that thread may be one for next friday so people have chance to get stuff scanned 🙂

Funnily enough I’ve just been looking at holiday snaps from 1988 . . . so, yes 😳 (via a few different incarnations). And, yes, you’re all just babies 😉 . . . 20 years ago I was heading for the Birthday of Doom (well, 3 years away).

I have 2 pr of undercrackers I still use from 1980ish, but they do have good elastic in them!. I think I was a 28″ waist then, I’m a 32″ waist now. They only get worn when I’m really really desperate for undies.

Yes

Yup.
I occasionally wear some flared levis and gig shirts from when I was about 17 (46 now).

Also got…ahem.. a mid blue crimplene safari suit from when I was about 15, still fits me a treat – I’ve been pretty much the same size since then. And it’s still waiting for the next 70’s party to come round !

yep – i can still get into my school uniform 😀

Errrrrr, I wasnt born?

lol@youoldpeople 😀

aliegh -school uni, proove it 😉

when you’ve learnt to spell my name right then maybe i will 😉 😆

Im still wearing some of them

Yep, 11 stone then 11 stone now. Always been a lanky streak of p*ss.

Yesterday I wore a pair of shoes I have had since I was 15. Still going strong!
