A wonderful and fun memoir capturing the feeling of the carefree sixties, when things were so much simpler! The story begins in the East End of London and follows the author’s move to Bristol. These stories remind us of the day-to-day and historical events and music of the time interwoven with a big splash of humorous fishing tales.
Goin’ Back to the 1960’s is a memoir of a happy and eventful life of a young man during the 1960’s where ‘growing up’ changed his outlook on life from a care-free innocent boy to an outright teenage cynic.
His story begins when Brian’s parents decide to move from an inner-city life in the East End of London to the leafy Berkshire countryside. This move changed his life completely for the better and together with a band of characterful friends he enjoyed all the freedoms the countryside had to offer. Life was certainly good, full of long summer days, fishing and many exciting adventures that would often get him into trouble.
These stories are full of the love and passion he had for angling, for sport, and especially for pop music recalling many of his favourite records of the time. Interspersed with hilarious anecdotes, as well as poignant family moments. He shares his views on the great historical events of the 60’s headlining the news at the time. These stories provide the reader with a nostalgic journey through the 1960’s and describes everything wonderful about growing up at that time. A funny, warm and light-hearted read.
