A Long Time Ago ... I became a Star Wars fan. My love for Star Wars was born when my father took me and my brother to see the original movie at the Regent Theatre in my home town, Great Yarmouth, in January 1978. I was 7 years-old. Needless to say, it made quite an impact on me. To celebrate The Force Awakens, I have created a 100-day countdown to its release. Using images from my collection, I will share my favorite memories of 35+ years of being a fan and collector of all things Star Wars.

71 days to go: I have swapsies!
Every UK child growing up in the 70s and 80s will remember the Panini Sticker Albums. Similar concept to Trading Cards, you would buy blind packets of stickers and stick them into an album, whilst trading duplicates with friends at school to try to complete the set. I managed to complete the Return of the Jedi album, which I think was a first for me.
