[QUOTE="trinityroyal, post: 591657, member: 3907"] Gym bloomers. [ATTACH=CONFIG]69[/ATTACH]Even my staid girls' school has updated their gym uniform to shorts and golf shirts now. Mine was the last grade to wear the dreaded gym bloomers, in dill-pickle green. Console stereos, with a built in turntable and a spot to store your LPs and 45s. Some of my friends had a gramophone and porcelain 78s. Those were a hoot. Going to the t-shirt store at the mall to have a custom t-shirt made with iron-on letters. Door-to-door milk delivery. Some of the houses in my neighbourhood still have the little milk doors, although most of them have been sealed. Dome-style hair dryers that you'd set up on a table, and sit under with your roller-set until your hair was dry. Hair rollers of any sort, for that matter. Those bouffant bathing caps with the chin strap and big pouffy flowers on the sides. Afro picks, to get your 'fro nice and lofty. Or to detangle your perm, depending on your hair texture and whatever your hair dresser has done to it. [/QUOTE]
