Subject: January 1st, 2000. A taste of the eighties...
Happy new year to all of you.
Didn't do much last night. Champagne and "foie gras", as usual. I thought that, when I'd wake up this morning with the fact that we're definitely entering a new era, the 29yo I am would feel at the wrong place but I was wrong.
I felt happy, played Galaga on my PC, listened to a few Duran Duran and Simple Minds hits from the eighties, and just found myself perfectly at the right place in the new millenium doing that. Stuff from the eighties seem to be the only things that cross the time line. What else could we bring with us into the new millenium than eighties stuff ? Hmmm... :-)
Do some of you also go to the Pet Shop Boys concert in Belgium - 6th February ?
Best regards, Lionel
