Hello Pete!! How you doing? Healed up now?

Video players - so 1970s!!

Peter's recollection of galoshes reminds me of the little rubber diamond things that were stuck on the bottom, they said 'Empire Made'.

Brilliant. Yeh, sadly all of the above and, more sadly, many of them still seem like new innovations!

ABC Minors, Wigan. Every Saturday morning. Had their own song, and you used to collect letter badges each week. I remember that they had woody woodpecker, a crap film and the three stooges every single week.
