Where might we live?

I wondered how we might be living out of this world....
So take off your helmet and settle back.

2000 and 1 A Space Odessy

The blog has now reached 2001 visitors and time for a celebration I think....





Is that Leonard Rossiter on the left?

Well I didn't know that,
 Oh miss Jones.....










Transport for the earth bound

I have been collecting things on pinterest lately and one of the interesting things that I have been finding, is how America moved itself through the 50s and into the 60s in that OTT American way that we love.












A great way to move....

Space 1999

To celebrate our 1999th visitor, I thought that we might refer back to this seminal TV series, looking at the fashion and thinking of the 1970s. Enjoy.....
