SPIRIT OF THE 70’S 1000 PIECE JIGSAW PUZZLE – GIBSONS
Britain faced a mathematical challenge when decimalisation ousted the old shillings and pence in 1971, and then, to reinforce this continental shift, the country joined the European Community (confirmed by the Yes vote in the referendum of 1975). After many economic woes, the three-day week and 25 per cent inflation, the country came together to celebrate the Queen’s Silver Jubilee in 1977. Pageantry and street parties captured the spirit of the occasion.
