        Gold or the poor man's gold, silver.

                      I'd just graduated, had no mortgage and was working on a big never ending IT defence contract so it sort of passed me by. The thing I do remember is loads of clothes shops going bust in and around Oxford St and stocking up on 'trendy' gear for peanuts. I've still got some of it to this day just incase I ever lose about 3 stone and can get into it again.
