Things Returning to Normal

After 41 years of oppression, you can see things returning to normal at long last. John Lewis are selling lava lamps. A bit pricey though, £24

I used to like Larva Lamps, but only ever see them in Charity Shops now, and very rarely. Normal from the 70s.

Retro is in! I've always liked Lava Lamps, but we've never had one.
Just because you’re offended doesn’t mean you’re right.

Not really too bad a price, the cheaper ones where about £2 10s in the late 60's, That's not far off from what the £24 is today.
