A Whiter Shade of Pale – Shiny Happy People Meme

by Ellie on January 20, 2010

It seems it’s the week for Meme’s and I do like a good tagging (in the non just released from prison sense you understand).

This time I’ve been tagged in Ms Rosie Scribble’s ‘Shiny Happy People Meme’ by the ‘The Cock of Wolverhampton’ Linda Jones (see what I did there Linda…..muahahahahaa!)

The rules of Rosie’s Meme are (cos she’s very strict like that) to:

“Name a song that makes you happy – a song you would listen to if you needed a sudden injection of happiness.

Post an image that makes you smile, it can be anything – a silly photo, an image taken from the internet, anything at all that puts a smile on your face (and isn’t too rude!)”

Without over thinking I’ve chosen this image circa 1995. I’m the redhead with the scarily pale legs. This picture makes me smile not least because we all look soooo old fashioned. It was a bank holiday and we drove to the coast (Great Yarmouth I think) for the day just because we could. The fact that I’m eating a Feast is obviously a bonus.

Good times.

As for the song, that’d have to be Jamiroquai’s ‘Return of the Space Cowboy’ Classic Remix. I’ve spent many a great night out dancing my socks off to this classic 90′s dance tune. The very sound of it makes me grin from ear to ear! If there’s one song guaranteed to get me on the dance floor throwing shapes like no one’s watching this it it!

So A Modern Mother, Cafe Bebe, Living with Kids, Bringing Up Charlie, The Moiderer, All That Comes With It, Hot Cross Mum, and Maternal Tales, what are your Shiny Happy Meme sights and sounds?

Awwwww, the pic is lovely and I love that song too. And Linda is the cock of many things. And very snoggable in a totally platonic way.
