I was being facetious, most likely it was my father rabbiting on, or worse, a hurling match on the radio

I can't recall there ever being any music in the car.

That changed when I bought myself one of those history changing walkmans, gosh I felt so cool walking around the village with the headphones on.

Too many of us children fighting, bitching and getting car sick

It'd be a question of "who remembered to bring the sick bag?"

I can't actually ever remember listening to anything in particular when in my parents cars .They never really played much music even at home. My dad liked Creedence Clearwater Revival and I can remember him humming away to their songs the odd time when they came on but that's the only time I remember music in the car.

Their relentless criticism of each other, and each other's relatives!

Needless to say they did eventually separate, but never divorced, possibly because the church wanted couples to stay together.
