If so … who or what adorned your walls, Fabsters?

I had mainly football related stuff if I recall correctly but the odd Jennifer Connelly and Phoebe Cates poster might have made an appearance from time to time

I did. I don't remember most of them if I'm honest. I never was a type to get crazy about celebrities or idols but liked the music. I'm sure there was a MJ as I had his cassette or two.

My family thought it was typically teenage boy stuff, but what they didn't realise was that I didn't have the hots for her - I wanted to be her.

So much my mum used to joke about why they bothered painting the walls.

Mainly film posters.

When moved to the UK took a tube of my favourite ones with me but finally got rid off after carrying them from place to place without putting up.
