Friday in 1999 It's a Friday evening in 1999, you ve just discovered Britney Spears 'Hit me baby one more time.' You're now learning the dance routine, because 'The Box' is always on the TV, it's your favourite night of the week because Friday is always a chippy tea. You hear the ice cream van in the distance, but you know you won't get one, because all you ever hear is "Get a Choc-ice out the freezer!" Anytime you ask your Mum. Everyone is excited about the millenium as you're approaching Y2K, you smell like a mixture of Versace red jeans and Impulse body spray. You might get to go to Blockbuster, to pick out a VCR, which always feels like a proper trip out, with the whole family bundled in the car. You will be there for nearly an hour, looking at every film on every aisle, because agreeing on which one to rent, always takes a while. And then you got back home, sit down together for family night, I miss the days like this, I think the nineties got it right.
