Thatcher Remixed

A wave of seventies revivalism has landed.  Economic dread revisited.  And bad fashion.  But, we are also in the midst of a Thatcher nostalgia moment in the media.  Here, from the BBC, is an audio slideshow on HER.  Sound is essential -it is really the best part.

Nostalgia and simple pleasures...

Children, school, drawing, cricket, apples, gardening, marbles, tea, father, holiday, seaside, grey skies, countryside, trains, dog, harbor, hardy fishermen, grandmother's cottage, fireplace chat.

It is all here...a bit dull, but in a very pleasant way.  I'm really trying to be a believer, but, somehow, it just does not seem as enticing as Courchevel....
