The headphones were huge. But, you know, they went on ya 
head and they stayed there. I have blogged about my small ears and my new fangled headphones disability previously. Me and in your ear headphones do not mix, I liked the ones with the big strap over your head holding the cans over your ears. Now I miss more music fiddling with the headphones as they fall out of my ears. There is a photo somewhere in my parents house of me in the garden, headphones in situ, wearing my Tshirt holding the album and Sindy doll. Due to the hideously short back and sides I was sporting back then, due to a mother telling an incompetent hairstylist that I needed "something easy to manage", it will never grace these pages.
Today daughter number 2 reaches the grand old age of 11. In her last year in Primary school, she enjoys being one of the big fishes in the little pond. September brings High School and the last strings of mother's apron gets well and truly snipped the first time she boards that big yellow bus on her own. Her gifts included a Bratz head and arms for much girly making up, jewellery and money.
She also has her first crush. Here you go babes - Happy Birthday
As for my crush on Adam, it faded as I swapped my allegiances to John Taylor and Duran Duran. Twenty five years on, Adam is a little crazy

LOL, my first crush was actually a cartoon character from "Voltron".
And I had to comment on the earphones-- same here! I was listening to my mp3 player while at work, and those darn earbuds just started hurting my ears. I quickly switched to the nice comfy foam pads with the nice strap resting on my head. Sound quality is just as good, and so much more comfortable!
A cartoon character??
God girl, you've always been a geek..
Aw come on-- I was what, 8 years old! :-P
An 8 year old geekette - lovely
Im quite proud of Bethan's first crush
Adam could have played Captain Jack, without must in the way of acting or makeup
Sure the Ant was hot - hell the main reason I checked out Northern Exposure. But did you mention Duran Duran???? Still to this day - the only band I can name all of the members to. Sure - three of them had same last name. And you can have John - i wanted Rodger to take my virginity!!!! Or sign my underwear - i would have been happy either way.
i'll tell you what you need to get...sony fontopia earphones, they are fiddly small in your ear jobbies, but at the same time once they're in i've never had mine fall out...ever! even when i used to go to the gym!
and they have really good sound quality too
happy birthday #2 :)
Happy Birthday to your daughter! I see a bit of a resemblance between Johnny and Adam, as well. Hmmm. My first crush was the kid from "The Black Stallion." Yeah, he was hot when I was in third grade, though I was probably more into the horse than him. ;)
