Maybe it’s because I was a teen in the 80’s; but I do miss the 80s so much. I miss skipping school to play pool; I miss the Queen live at Wembley; I miss Red Ronnie Be Bop A Lula, especially the fanzine with the drawings of Bonvi and all the crazy articles, like the one from The Stranglers about a then unbelievable ‘hole in the ozone layer’… I miss the avid reading of computer magazines with friends of the local computer club, I miss coding on the Commodore Amiga. I miss the Goonies.
