20 years ago I was working up at our local farm which is also a DIY livery yard, working with my own horses, and others.........great life, outdoors in all weathers and never had a cold......

......since I gave it up after the death of my last horse in late 2005, I have had cold after cold, and flu this Christmas.....

.......my 3 kids were still at home and teenagers, and life was noisy and very busy........it is all so different now.....

For those who weren't around 50 years ago I thought I'd start a thread for those who were around 20 years ago.

I was a care assistant looking after children with special needs. I cycled to work and back; 4 miles round trip. I also applied to do nursing. I was single with a boyfriend who lived miles away in Norwich. He's now my OH.
