Hands making a heart shape against a sunset

The soundtrack of her youth

A soundtrack for the late-70s and early-80s

When Diane was a teenager, the airwaves were filled with the twin-guitar sparkle of The Police and the synth-driven optimism of early Duran Duran. Saturday mornings meant cartoons on the BBC, a bowl of cereal, and the occasional episode of 'The Avengers' rerun that sparked secret superhero dreams. The scent of freshly-cut grass from school sports fields mixed with the smell of vinyl records slipping onto turntables: a world where mixtapes were the ultimate love letters. Those sounds, those scenes, still echo when she steps onto a family dance floor, letting the rhythm carry her back to those carefree evenings.

A worked example

Meet Diane, our example sister

Diane isn't a real customer, but sisters like her are everywhere. This shows the kind of detail families send us, and what we do with it. Yours would be built from your own memories.

Diane

Turning 60. Bike teacher, master liar, dance-floor queen.

  • Taught me to ride a bike without training wheels
  • Perfected the art of lying to Mum in dramatic style
  • Stood up for me when I needed a voice
  • First on the dance floor at every family do

What her brother told us

My sister is 60. She taught me to ride a bike, lie to Mum badly, and stand up for myself, roughly in that order. Married forty years, grandma of five, still first on the dance floor at every family do. When Dad was ill she held us all together without ever being asked. This song is her overdue thank you.

The sort of thing a brother might send us
