Twinkle: ♫Terry ♫Golden Lights ... retirement

Actor Fay Ripley (Cold Feet) mentioned her Auntie Twinkle (Lynn Ripley) during an interview.

In the mid-60s, Twinkle released a couple of singles: Terry and Golden Lights, songs that she wrote herself. Appearing on Top of the Pops as a teenage mod in fashionable clingy striped top,  mini-skirt and long boots, with her long blonde hair, full fringe and pale lipstick, she was the envy and idol of every teenage school-girl. Twinkle's time in the spotlight was less than two years and she retired from her pop singing career at the ripe old age of 18.

I heard one of the songs on the radio at the weekend and decided to share these with you:
