What have you been up to for the last twenty years?...

Fire up the Golf GTi, take it for a burn up on the A21, brush off your double breasted sharp suits and attach those wide red braces which have been lurking in the corner of the wardrobe all these years. Get a weird haircut with a ridiculously long quiffy fringe, polish off your Loakes brogues. Forget Abba and 70s retro fashions. Cos Spandau Ballet are back! Gary Kemp and Tony Hadley have buried the hatchet and are just starting their European tour after 2 years of legal and actual fighting. Yes the Eighties are back. I moved to Tonbridge in 1989, when the whole 80s thing was just about over. What was it like here in that decadent decade? Any different to now? Post you classic 80s memories below....

There weren't so many chavs about back then. Apart from that I don't remember the 80's being particularly decadent.
