We asked, you answered.
We love having a bit of a giggle about days gone by here at Her Towers but the answers we got to a question on Twitter this week may just be our favourite thing ever.
Finding out what was everybody’s first poster that went up on their wall as a child revealed some pretty fascinating answers, including a good few embarrassing ones!
Here’s just some of our favourites…
_____________________________________________________
QUESTION: What was the first poster you put on your wall as a child? Embarrassing answers preferred.

@Herdotie Jamie Renknapp. Stolen from my brother’s room and leaving a Jamie-shaped hole on his Liverpool wall. I regret nothing.
