It's a (Xmas) wrap (Vol.3, 1981)

Content note: thrush-date (we know you missed it!), and medical  stuff is discussed. As usual, we encourage you to talk to a doctor about anything that might be bothering you.*I find out what a travellers cheque really is…It’s Christmas time in 1981! And the last episode of Season One!We read about going to the canoe race at Albert Park Lake, legs ‘a la lobster’ which means very sunburned legs, mum goes to Leo’s Spaghetti Bar, gran’s worried about mum’s trip to China cause the ‘white slave trade’ (oh some very retro fears), we find out about how mum wants to be ‘journaliste terrifique’ and to be on the front page of The Age, we have Christmas day and mum prepares to leave on her trip to Hong Kong by getting travellers cheques (seriously what are they??) and getting her typhoid/cholera vax, and can’t wait to get her new Canon AE-1 Program at duty free, it has auto shutter speed and aperture! We chat about Jane Eyre and Wide Sargasso Sea, women having it all, how chequebooks are really redundant now, how in 10 years Melbourne traffic will be like LA, the 80s Newcombe moustache and the current 70s porn 'stache, and past family feuds. We leave mum on Christmas night just before midnight, she’s packed and ready for grandad to pick her up in the morning. So tune in to season 2 coming 2023 to hear all about the Hong Kong trip and mum’s 1982 adventures!  As always, listen to experience: cringe, giggles and some real-life shit.We'll be back in 2023! Follow us on Insta @mumsbaddiaries Click to head to our show notes at: mymumsbadidiaries.comWe'd love to read your comments or questions!
