The cobra under the cushion (Vol.3, 1982)

*** Content note: there's a bit of language around race in the Hong Kong episodes. Times have changed (which is GOOD) but we think it's important to keep the entries true to history and then it's an opportunity to unpack and discuss.

I find out what a Lowrey organ is… 

And more importantly I find out all about mum’s trip to Hong Kong! 

We set off at a cracking pace in the first episode of Season 2 as we dive into 1982- we’ve got rugby boys, sailors and a life sized cut out of John McEnroe, oh my! 

Mum visits some high society lady, goes for lots of coffee and cake at Furama’s hotel and explores the monastery at Lantau Island. We also chat about what my '80s fashion would be (definitely Madonna-esque), Mum announces her plans to add multiple Adam Ant band t-shirts to her wardrobe and we fill you in on what the hell we’ve been up to for the last 6 months!  

As always, listen to experience: cringe, giggles and some real-life shit.
