As for me I was a '79 baby and shamefully remember things from both lists. Memories are meant to be treasured, so if you can even admit to having worn a bright yellow/pink/green shell suit, thought yourself cool by shouting "By the power of grey skull, I have the power" at top of your lungs in the school playground, or that you even proudly sang along to Vanilla Ice while waiting in anticipation and gossiping with friends about his movie debut then you are truly a brave person. As for me I am pleading the 5th and on that note i bid you Au reviour!
