This is a lively account of a young man living in Bristol during the so-called Swinging Sixties, progressing from a shy and awkward 16 year old, to a gradual sexual awakening and an awareness of what girls are all about. The author reflects on his journey from innocence, and describes a variety of young ladies he met in this fine city, from his first love and then beyond. His girlfriends, which ranged from the virtuous to the not so virtuous, came from all corners of Bristol. This, coupled with his job taking him around the city, led to him discovering a variety of clubs, pubs and cinemas in the city, many now long gone. He describes his experiences with an open honesty and, more than once, suggests he might be giving away 'too much information'. He was one of many teenagers and young men living the dream during this memorable era and believes his memories will sound familiar to others who had the good fortune to be there.
