[FlashDrive (Poppy)]

The 70's ..... Young and free I was ( or so I thought ) ....1972 ... joined the RAAF at age 17 ... bought my first car ... Holden KingsWood 186 engine.... 3 on the tree .. buckets seats....Rego cost $65.00 a year ... it had a 16 gallon tank ( about 65 liters ) cost $8.00 to fill up from empty.
If you put $2.00 worth of petrol in it .... it would give you a 1/4 of a tank of fuel. ... car payment was $45.00 a month.

Skyhooks reined on the music charts along with Abba and Bay City Rollers, The Sweet , Creedence Clearwater Revival .. etc. ..etc.

Who remembers .....COUNTDOWN on TV ....by the ever popular MOLLEY MELDRUM .... ( such an ego ).
I used to smoke then .... a packet of Escort cigarettes was 35 cents.
A 10 ounce glass of beer was 24 cents ..... you could get " blind" on $5.00 ( 20 beers )

I could go on... but ... I prefer to end with .... I REMEMBER WHEN ... !!!
