Lets dig up the past.

You could choke your heart out on that ...

 

Oh no its Selwyn Froggit, old TV Program...... Magic :WINK1:

 

I remember WALKING 2.9 miles to School (we lived inside the 3 mile qualification for a bus.)
I am a 50's kid. We weren't molly-coddled then - but we roamed anywhere without concern.
Health & Safety would have a fit these days if what we got up to was repeated.
It was fun though!

 

We all remember captain scarlet and all the other Gerry and Sylvia Anderson productions, but what about cartoons? any one remember Marine Boy?

 

As kids we used to eat Beechnut chewing gum and pretend it was "oxygum".

 

Not just me then.

 

I can't remember Marine Boy, but maybe he grew up to become the Man from Atlantis.

 

Aw Marine Boyone of my favorites.....he had the most gorgeous big eyes

 

Anyone remember Land of the Giants

 

I do, but I never really liked it.
Come to think of it, there are a lot of "old good" tv programmes*

*But I have to also admit, they are just memories, because when you watch some of them on youtube you soon get bored with them

 

I know what you mean Watergarden...looking back at them now they are so naff but as a kid they were amazing....Cat weasle scared the life out of me...it's only a few months back we were going to buy a cottage near a water tower (think thats where he lived) thats the first thing that came to my mind when i looked at it....maybe that's why i'm no good with' electrickery' now.....
I never get bored with..Hectors House,The Herbs,Trumpton and what's the other one....similar to Trumpton but carn't remember....
I really should grow up:WINK1:

 

Yes, he did live in a water tower, and had a pet frog called touchwood. (i think)
The one you are thinking of that is like Trumpton is the next town down, but which way? To Chigley or Camberwick green?

Lord Belborough of Winkstead Hall had the train in Chigley, on the footplate there and back again, under bridges over bridges.....(as sung by Brian Cant) They also had the 6 O'clock whistle at the factory

Camberwick green had windy miller who lived in a windmill and also went on to advertise porridge

​

 

...Yes that's it Watergarden...camberwick green....Brilliant
