London 1981....
« on: November 20, 2009, 06:19:49 AM »
I just posted my vacation photo album from my 1981 trip to London.

Here's a sample...











The Helter Skelter on the amusement pier at Brighton.
This was the ride that the Beatles wrote their song of the same name about.
"When I get to the bottom,
I go back to the top of the slide
When I stop and I turn and I go for a ride
Then I see you again..."

For real. Charles Manson had it all wrong.

Ha! These are super cool - I had no idea about the slide.

How is it that you had two monkeys? I don't even have one.
Remember how he couldn't stop his leg?

These pictures are great.  I love what you wrote about them on Facebook.  I need to pick up and go somewhere soon.
Doing it Mentos style.

This the only time in the last 8 months I've regretted leaving Facebook. Photos from 1981 London would be cool.

I was in London on a business trip in 1981.  How on earth did we not bump into each other?

These are great, brought back a lot of memories.
I totally remember that remote controlled boat game. The old bus ticket brought a  tear to my eye.
Oh, and you stayed in Brighton on my tenth birthday.
