Year of the week 1980

Led Zeppelin decides to split up, the geeks are happy with a new star wars film and the United States imposes economical sanctions upon Iran. Yes, it was a really bad year for a lot of people. But there were some positive things about 1980!

Nelson Mandela crushed apartheid… well he tried to… from within a prison. Ooh and then there was John Lennon… who got shot… and died. Ooh and a terrorist attack in Italy… that’s no good either right?

Ok maybe it WAS a bad year, but the good thing was that after 10 years of hell those dreadful tasteless eighties would finally end.
