Your challenge, should you accept, is to find that clip. :lol:
Too easy Chris! :lol: Enjoy! :)

Britain was still British then, and PVC rainwear, made from shiny, squeaky/crackly and soft PVC (it was long before the anti-phthalate and anti-PVC hysteria of modern times), was commonplace.
In many ways I would have to agree with you, but perhaps we only remember the good bits....

Going back to 1973? I wouldn't need asking twice! :)
