Mum used to send me and sister Denise across to Enfield CC when they were playing at home during the summer to get us out of her hair - dad used to be there all day watching -the incentive was that he'd buy us a bottle of pop (+ straw as you describe) and a packet of crisps!

Do you remember the Humphrey ads of the seventies Sue?

Watch out there's a Humphrey about!
No Dianne the seventies was virtually a television-free period for me, not a bad thing seeing what was on offer mostly I think!

I was otherwise engaged
a) being a student then getting my first job and having a busy social life
b) working in USA for a year
c) living in a bedsit in London with no telly
d) meeting Richard and doing other things with him
e) buying our first house and doing it up

Saw most TV in America, mostly watched the public broadcasting channel so saw quite a bit of BBC drama!
