OMG Brentford Nylons! I'd forgotten all about those adverts. I was dismayed to find that my first boyfriend had purple nylon sheets. It's a wonder we didn't spark a fire.

I just looked up the TV ad for Brentford Nylons so I could get the full immersive Alan Freeman effect. Wow! The Nostalgia!

Seeing Brentford nylons again (omg!!) reminds me of the day I came home to find my and my sisters beds covered in pink nylon quilted spreads with matching pillow cases. Lots of nylon flounces around both. Our nighties were nylon too, it was everywhere!
