Taken at the Abbey Park Music Festival in August 1990. I’m in the middle, clutching a green plastic bag.
This is the last known photo of me as an unattached male. A couple of hours later, I had consumed the cans of lager that were in the bag and was wooing the future MrsR. She fell for my louche drunken charm, and we were soon partaking of our first tonguey snog.
Happy Valentine’s, everyone. If you’re still single, I suggest you go to a rock festival and get utterly twatted. It worked for me.
While you were music festivaling/impressing women I was in kindergarten. Look at all those high waists and baggy shirts.
