More reminiscering

I'm actually looking forward to 60 when I can (hopefully!) retire. Can't come quick enough!

Sixty was great. I was given a geat book by Virginia Ironside called 'No I don't want to join a bookclub'
She took the view that she was now totally free and could do just what she wanted. I am trying to follow in her footsteps[:)]

[kallis3]

Apart from work, I'm pretty much that way now (apart from work!). I dress how I like even though one of my younger work colleagues thinks that I shouldn't wear leggings!

I'll def out the book club but love the library.

Jan you taught me that you can wear what you what despite age! You carry on wearing what you want x

Ahhhh lovely post Wizz!! I have an almost 6 year old grandaughter and love her outlook on life [:)]
Apart from the fact she wants me to hurry up and die so she can have my jewels...[:0][:D]

Remember the tv programmes from childhood.....The Clangers and Bagpuss [:)]

Lesley - I wear leggings all the time - not bothered what anyone thinks.

Julie - I loved both of those!

I used to like Scooby doo but my eldest grandaughter has worn me out watching it!! Middle grandaughter loves Fireman Sam and my baby girl loves peppa pig! So much so, I am taking her to see Peppa Pig live at the theatre [:)]

[kallis3]

I loved Scooby Doo in my younger days. Step grandaughter loves Peppa pig.

[Foggy]

My little lad used to watch Fireman Sam a lot -- by the time I got into it he now watches Peppa Pig (so I now watch Fireman Sam on my own ! )

Daughter used to love Sabrina the Teenage Witch (so did I!), Moesha and Sister, Sister. She also loved Keenan and Kel which I absolutely hated!

[Julie]

Norman is such a naughty boy in Fireman Sam [:D]...I'm now forced to watch icarly.com, how childrens programmes have changed [:D]

[Wizzzard]

These are all new progams ... what you want are 4 Feather Falls ... Fireball XL-5 ... and Torchy ... not forgetting the Woodentops

I seem to go backward and forward with programmes dependant on age range of grandchild here. Yesterday was the twins so we had in the night garden and the like. The youngest twin is TV obsessed and stops in his tracks if songs come on and la la's along to them it's so sweet. The other twin is a bit more tactile and enjoys throwing toys over the stair gate into the kitchen!

[kallis3]

Ray - I am totally with you there! I remember Four Feather Falls, Torchy and I loved Fireball XL-5, and Stingray! I am sad enough to remember that on a Monday it was Watch with Mother, Tuesday was Andy Pandy, Wednesday was Bill and Ben, Thursday was Rag, Tag and Bobtail and Friday was The Woodentops!
