The 80s ended more than 30 years ago, but it was an interesting time in the eye of an impressionable youth such as me. I was 5 when it started and 15 when it was over. In between we had the closing chapter in the cold war, a battle between home computers, a combat where silence met the truth of an incident in a village near Kiev and off course the monumental clash between east and west as the borders fell. Most of this is presented through the eyes of the child I was back then.
