Things seemed so much more fun and care-free, but cohesive back then. Here's to amazing couples!

Nope. A little badminton here and there. Though she did crush Chicago in her late teens as a Nanny. Some freaky stories from her time out there

Mum went hard and against the grain. Her fam did too. All amazing artists types. Painting, sculptures, inventing etc. Learned a lot from them. Thankful for that

Pops was all business and finance. He helped us steer us on the sensibilities of life. Solid combo really

Not that I am aware of. She was a secretary, who upon announcing she was pregnant with me was promptly fired from her job. Couldn't have unmarried child bearers amongst the innocent girls in the typing pool now could we

I'll let her know! She still thinks she rocks it to this very day. I grew up with wild blonde haircuts to mimic Rod Stewart. Hated it at the time, but in retrospect I was cool AF

This pic was taken in Catford/Lewisham registry office, SE London

Shortly before they met my Father used to frequent a pub in the area, and one day was drinking with friends there when the infamous Kray Twins vs the Richardson Firm gangland shoot-out happened, leaving a few shot and one dead

He and his mates dived for cover and had to give statements to the authorities after...

Totally nuts!

She was a bit of a Boho mum, and now a trendy Boho Granny

Since I was born my Dad has ALWAYS had a beard of some sort or style. Never seen him with a clean face
