Culture Gap

An interesting read, even if it did make me feel rather elderly. To this list I will add a few UK entries:

Todays school leavers -

- Were born 4 to 6 years after the Falklands War

- Can barely remember Margaret Thatcher and probably find her about as relevant as Queen Victoria

- Watch the tv series The Young Ones as a bit of nostalgia, and don’t realise it was once cutting edge comedy

- Think there have always been MacDonalds in the UK

- View the original Live/Band Aid in the same way their parents viewed Woodstock

- Think Mick Jagger is a friendly old chap, and are unaware that he was considered a menace to their Grandparents

- Have no idea that up until the decade they were born in, Britain only had 3 tv channels, and no satellite at all
