'Flash' was the word at the time.
In my area of East London/Essex borders, 1968/69 was not a bad time to be white working class.
We had money in our pockets and we spent it. I had a made to measure mohair suit, Prince of Wales jacket and a real crombie. Shoes/shirts/socks from the Squire shop, Levis from 'The Lane'. And a lot more. We were 'flash' and we knew it.
