Loads of memories. I've started finding the old eerie kids tv shows like Children Of Green Knowe, Children Of The Stones and The Tomorrow People. These are actually quite scary tv shows and i'm surprised they were on for kids but they make good viewing now. Watch this and you'll see just how eerie this stuff could be. www.videosift.com/video/Children-of-the-Stones-The-fantastic-opening-title-musicLoads of other classics like Terrahawks Mask Potty Time Fraggle Rock Dungeons & Dragons Grange Hill Anyone remember the Red Hand Gang?

I remember the Britains collections very well. I have an aunt in Coventry and we used to visit her in the summertime (no holidays abroad for us in the 70's!)In Coventry city centre there used to be a marvellous toy shop with the whole collection of Britains toys. They were quite expensive if I remember correctly. My aunt, bless her, she bought me one of the Landies. I had that thing for years. I'm like 'Carter', I remember all those programmes first time round. I also remember some weird kid's programmes that my contemporaries seem to have forgotten like Inch high private eye, Tales of the riverbank, Hickory House, The Herbs,Rentaghost,Screen test. The list goes on, I've got one of those irritating good memories (I enjoyed my time as a kid, I still do enjoy myself, you only get one crack at it!)
