#WondrousWednesday @Eggs
1.Definitely 'Dance Hall days' by Wang Chung. I could not LOVE that song more!
2.I stayed in a perfect Airbnb in Chelsea in London once,that would be my dream home!
3.A nice walk with my husband in good weather to get an expansive sweet breakfast accompanied by good coffee!
Tagged book is a great read on music!

Eggs Excellent ideas 💡 👏🏻👏🏻 10mo

Enjoyed this one even more than I expected.
Martin shared some great personal memories, from growing up in council housing to eventually playing in front of six-figure crowds in Italy with Spandau Ballet and moving on to acting.
Loved reading his personal life lessons along with details about ‘80s culture.

#BlameitonLitsy I saw so many people mentioning this book, I had to read it! I absolutely LOvE this book.In India,we first got cable TV in the 90s,and MTV here basically dumped all their 80s videos on us-so people my age(born in the late 80s)have a lot of nostalgia for 80s music-those were the first music videos we were seeing!This book captures that so well

BarbaraBB That sounds cool! 3y
