Scousers have been remembering the 'best' decade when you could 'go out on a fiver and come back with change'.
The eighties ended over 30 years ago but they have not been forgotten. Throughout the decade Liverpool underwent a period of 'managed decline' by prime minister Margaret Thatcher after the 1981 Toxteth riots, destroying industry and job opportunities.
It is testament to the character of Scousers that those forces didn't prevent the era from being one of 'the best''. For many, including those who grew-up in the decade, it was and still remains an iconic time in the city.
