I heard the mellow tones of Karen Carpenter singing “Yesterday
Once More” earlier today and was immediately transported back to the ‘70s, a
school “disco” (terribly avant-garde
for Layton Hill!!) and the yellow and brown floral maxi dress mum had made
following my impassioned pleas that “everyone else had one”. Thankfully the photographic evidence has long
since disappeared as I was never too keen on either the wide belt or the nylon
lace that adorned the bell shaped sleeves!!
But as I listened to Karen’s velvet voice, my nostalgia was tinged with sadness
as I remembered her tragic, untimely death
