I'm a bit older than you, but I remember Jackie (big fan) and Oh Boy (not so much), and somewhere, deep in a box in the attic, I still have my Brownie Guide Handbook with all its useful tips on how to do the washing up.

Jackie was the best.

I remember the brownie guide handbook as I had one myself tbh and remember all the blue jeans and Jackie magazines

This does take me back, Keris. I remember countdowns to going out in Jackie magazine when I was a teen, with precise timings for a bath, a face mask, applying make-up etc. Or sometimes for staying in, as a treat!

Ooh yes, I’d forgotten countdowns to going out. But I never went out 😂

Oh boy, blue jeans, Jackie & the brownies handbook - I had them all. I moved on from oh boy to Love affair as it seemed more grown up ( influenced by my friends big sister!)

Really enjoyed this, I’d forgotten about most of those magazines!

Ooh, Love Affair looks very grown up!
