GB. ENGLAND. Isle of Wight. Pop festival. Girls with the bouffant hairstyle popular at the time. It was a mainstream hairstyle in the mid-to-late 18th century in western Europe. It was thought to be created for Marie Antoinette, as she had relatively thin hair and wanted to create the illusion of having very full hair. 1969.

GB. WALES. Sennybridge. Pub sing-along. General.  A 'sing song' in a local pub in the village of Sennybridge, Mid Wales.  The tradition of public singing springs from the fact that many of the community are or were members of choirs.  The choir linked to the Chapel is one of the least expensive mass cultural pastimes. 1973.
