Naughty Noughties are like the Sixties

Emma's theory for the day ... though actually I had this theory towards the beginning of the noughties too (though I have no proof, dammit).

The green conscience that has grown up through the nation, growing public action to express concern with the system and anger at companies (a la Nick Griffin on Question Time today). Boho chic, new funky festivals, allotments, all of these things seem to me to point towards the hippy heaven of the Sixties.

So does that mean we have neon flares and disco music to look forward to in the teenies??!?

Liam is brilliantly pointing us to look back over the last decade to everything we have achieved (or not, as the case may be), however this is also a chance to look forward. At the end of this upcoming decade we will be approaching 40, potentially with kids and an even bigger mortgage. My career will be in a different place, we may be living in a different place ... and a whole new ten years of adult life will be behind us.

All the wonderful experiences that await ... just imagine ...
