Why Gen X Had It All: Growing Up in Britain is the ultimate nostalgia trip for anyone who survived childhood without a mobile phone, social media, or seatbelts in the back of the car! This book takes readers on a colourful journey through the 1970s and 80s, when life was simpler but far from boring.

Remember hopscotch chalked onto pavements, riding your Raleigh Chopper until the streetlights flicked on, and family dinners where Angel Delight was the height of sophistication? This book captures it all and paints a vivid picture of a generation that grew up just analogue enough to appreciate life without endless notifications, but digital enough to master the Rubik's Cube.

Packed with tales of iconic toys, dodgy fashion, playground politics, and family life gathered around a bulky TV, this book is a heartwarming, humorous, and love letter to the last generation to grow up offline. Whether you're reliving it or discovering it for the first time, Why Gen X Has It All will have you laughing, reminiscing, and declaring. We did have it all!
