I keep remembering things....when I was about 12 -13 yo I used to model dresses for David Jones on a RADIO show . Squillions of teenagers used to go after school to the 2GB auditorium for a teen show.  I think it was called Teen Time, but that may have been the name of the other small audience show on 2UE.

I was picked out of the huge audience to model clothes.  I just swanned around on the stage and then described the dress on air.  My payment was keeping the dresses. The dresses I didn't like I just sold for pocket money.

Anybody remember the radio show,  Mrs 'Obbs (who was actually played by a man).  Dicky Bart who sold clothes props and Mr. Bottomley who was having it off with the school mistress?

And then in the early days of tv, The mickey mouse club with that cute Annette Funicello and all the mouseketeers....   how we loved that...... hey there hi there ho there you're as welcome as can be .... M I C   KEY   MOUSE. 

In black and white too, but it didn't matter, we saw the colours in our minds.

Yes I remember that and there was another show I used to listen to as well it was called *Hagan's Circus* was on every night at 6.00pm, it was a serial.

The very first show that I saw on TV in black & white was *Annie Oakley*. Our neighbours bought a TV and they invited us in to see it, after that dad went out and bought one.

There wasnt that much to watch mainly westerns and a very young Clint Eastward in *Rawhide*

I loved Bonanza to with Little Joe.

Oh Yes Purple, and Martins Corner and the Search for the Golden Boomerang (I can still remember the theme song).

I think the main character's name was Kakonie or something like that.

This thread is a hoot..

I remember crying my eye's out that santa didn't bring me a rope petticoat on Christmas morning. Funnily enough santa misplaced it and left in my Brothers bedroom :^O Margo, wow that's expensive, but when you think about it it's only 2 good bottles of wine :^O

Now you have me worried freddie, did your brother try on the rope peticoat?  :^O

Y'know, I suppose it's because I grew up listening to the radio plays that even now I am happy to be doing something else and just listening to the TV programs.

I have friends who just don't understand that I still 'see' it all in my mind... anyone else like that?

Ballroom dancing classes and square dancing and Pride of Erin progressive dances... things they don't even know today...

Yes, and someone said we were taught to cook and sew and knit - all the home making crafts... now kids hardly know any of that.

To my delight my young granddaughter wants me to teach her to knit, her mother doesn't so I'm the only chance she has 🙂

Well it's nite nite from me, I'm off to bed, see you all tomorrow xx
