'If you can remember anything about the sixties then you weren't there.'
(Quote attributed to various well-known imbibers of illicit substances.)

Is this really how things were?
It's the summer of 1969 - conclusion of the mythologised sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll decade that has come to define the lives of those born in the years following the Second World War. But if the sixties were one long party, then Barry never received his invitation. For him there has been precious little sex or rock 'n' roll, and certainly no drugs. Stymied by his chronic shyness and lack of confidence, he worries that he might have missed out on the fun others seem to be having. Perhaps things are about to change though. A cool summer vacation job in a popular British seaside town might make all the difference. Well, maybe.

This distinctive blend of laugh-out-loud humour and gentle pathos tracks an eventful year in Barry's student life. It's an account that should serve to enlighten those who can't remember the sixties, and abundantly entertain those who can.
