I'm afraid there has been tumbleweed blowing through this site for the last 4 or 5 years. It was once a brilliant site and we had some great debates and some good piss ups but everyone had long since moved on to Facebook.

Suppose you could say as on now in my early 40's I'm clinging on to my youth but hay what the he'll. I'm originally from ripon in north York's but now live with my family in Kent between Maidstone and sevenoaks. So hi. Oh and another bit of quirkiness in my life as well as been a drummer since I was about ten I also play the didgeridoo Also there was at the time back early to mid 80's a beautiful mod girl from Harrogate called Sharon who I managed to go out with for about 2 mins think she went to either tosser or Granby high dies anybody on here remember her sir name or know her etc. Cheer Stockie And as a quick ps to this does anyone from up north remember and can explain the mod wall at the bottom end of Leeds market?nondisclosed_email@example.com (yorkshire mod)Mon, 14 Jan 2013 13:30:07 +0000 Re: Introduce Yourself!https://bmodrevivalforums.runboard.com/p236442,from=rss#post236442https://bmodrevivalforums.runboard.com/p236442,from=rss#post236442I'm Jason, I'm 32 and a Graphic Designer by trade.

Is that like 'Ultraman'? An ultra is a type of football fan that stands and sings for 90 minutes, whether their team is winning or losing (or drawing!). They organise displays, come up with new chants etc. They tend to wear terrace clobber, which is where my interest in fashion (or my interest in having 'a look') came from. From there, I got properly into music as well, from the 60s rock bands to punk to 'Madchester', right up to bands like Oasis and Kasabian.

Found this site while searching for an M51 parka on Google, looks good so I signed up (obviously!). I wouldn't exactly class myself as a Mod, but I'm here to learn more about the culture. So, expect plenty of stupid questions that will make you laugh/scoff, but I'd appreciate any help with learning more. As the username suggests, I'm also influenced by the casual culture. I like and dislike aspects of both really (when it comes to the music and fashion I mean). Put simply, I like my football, music and fashion, and I'm here to learn more.
