The way we were
Molly Hornby was a young girl in the
1960s. Read what she says about it.
“I
was a young girl in the 1960s. My friends and I used to do a lot of things
which shocked our parents. We used to do things our mothers never did. We cut
our hair, we wore short skirts, we smoked, and went dancing. We danced to the
music of Elvis Presley and the Beatles. We also got the chance to see the
Beatles live at a concert once. It was amazing. My father went fishing once a
week. He always wished that I would accompany him, but fishing was not my cup
of tea. Instead my friends and I went for picnics in the
surrounding area quite often. My boyfriend had a car, a 1960 Ford Falcon, so
he always picked us up and we often drove to Brighton. We went to the
pictures twice a week and I loved to watch films with Marlon Brando and
Elizabeth Taylor , especially the ‘Reflections in a Golden Eye’ starring both
of them. I still love to watch this film. It’s my favourite. I can remember
it all so clearly.”
