• Forever Young

    What was life like for you when you were 18-28 years old?
  • Very often, very happy memories surface when looking at old photographs, hearing music, or recalling friendships and events from the early years of our adulthood. We would love you to dip into those memories and celebrate something from that time in writing. It can be as short or as long a piece of writing as you like! It could be as a poem, a story, or just a few lines that sum up what you’d like to share with us, or alternatively, you can answer as much of the questionnaire as you like.

    • A Souvenir in Writing  
    • We would particularly like you to focus on that decade in your life, when you were 18-28 years old, and tell us a little bit about what your social life was like then and the things you really enjoyed doing.

      As you are reading this, you may already have a fair idea of what you’d like to write about, so please go ahead with that. But, if you’d like a few suggestions, there might be something in the list below that triggers a nice memory and puts a smile on your face:

      What were your pastimes?

      Did you enjoy dancing?

      What music did you enjoy?

      Are there songs from that time that remind you of people?

      What were the fashions like?

      Did you make your own clothes?

      Did the cinema play a part in your life?

      Had you favourite singers and film stars?

      Did you play sport?

      Was there a team you supported?

      What kinds of jobs were popular locally?

      Where did you go on daytrips or holidays?

      What was the greatest thing about life then?
