Can I get on? Thanks! Hey you guys, great to see you, is this seat taken? OK, the whistle is blowing and we now have to get to the next stop to pick up Christy . We should get to her by about 1990, so settle down for a long journey, I'm not that good on Geography but I think we're heading over the Atlantic to North Carolina!

Now I'm singing Abba too! I loved martini and lemonade too..we used to ask for a "martini and white" because brown lemonade was a popular drink too. I'm glad you enjoyed being 17. Wasn't it just grand!
