Hi Sara, this photo was taken by my friend Lynda Neale and the copyright belongs to tracks.co.uk. I can't believe I used to walk around pretending to smoke (which I never did) just to look "cool". Teenagers... I had my hair in a pony tail.
I think it is pretty normal to pretend to do things to look "cool" when you are a teenager. I HATE beer and always have. But when I was 18, I remember going to parties and holding a cup of beer and pouring it out in a bush now and then to look like I was drinking it. Now I think how silly that was!
I used to buy Lark cigarettes - the kind John smoked - hoping that he would run out of his and ask me for one. Believe me, when you read my book you will be amazed at the amount of silly things I used to do!
So much looking forward to the book! Lizzie, I hope you don`t forget that some fans are extremly obsessed with dates for photos, so if you could included these in your book I gonna buy it (ok, I lied, I`m gonna buy it anyway ;-) )
i have dates written by hand on the front of most of my photos, ken. some i will have to research reading the diaries for the 4th time, which i'll be doing this week.
Hey Lizzie - good to hear! If you happen to have some undated ones that you cannot narrow down don`t hesitate to ask - while most of us were not "there" back then there are always some good later-generation photo-dating-fans around! ;-)
thank you so much ken and sara: i'll be sure to remember to ask for help! please send me your e-mail, ken. i already have sara's. i'm at lizzie.bravo@gmail.com

ReplyDeleteKen is right. Some of us have the whole find the dates down to an art. We have records of facial hair and all sorts of goofy things. :)
