I remember the comic Whizzer and Chips and also Twinkle.
Hiding behind the sofa while watching Dr Who and going down the shop on a Saturday morning with my Thrupenny bit and buying my comic and 1/4 of boiled sweets and choosing different ones each week!! Ah sweet memories, thanks for that. If only childhood could be as innocent now lol.

What a great thread.
I remember going down the shop on a Saturday morning with my thrupenny bit and buying my comic which was Twinkle in my younger years and Whizzer and Chips later and a 1/4 of boiled sweets and trying different ones each week.
Watching Dr Who from behind the sofa! and playing knock door run with friends and thinking we invented the idea lol!!
Times were so innocent and free-spirited then and School holidays went on forever and a day!! Ah thanks for the memories.

I remember Big Ted, Little Ted, Gemima, Hamble and Humpty Dumpty. I also remember milk bottles at school. I was probably in the very last year that it was given out. When did that stop Bigmamma? I'm presuming it went out when Mrs T moved in.

Tiswas was brill and launched the careers of Lenny Henry and Chris Tarrant. Not sure what became of Sally James. I loved chocolate Banjo's and Counters - they have since disappeared. And Tizer tasted much nicer when I was a kid.

I feel old now!!!

The 60s weren't very swinging for me. Hippies and Flower Power were things happening far away. I saw them on black & white TV. My childhood consisted of Blue Peter, Sunday School, threepenny bits, Cub Scouts, morning prayers in class, lucky bags and the Beano. But I did like pop music, which was new then, especially the Beatles.

Yes tiggerblue , it was mrs Thatcher that stopped the school milk if I am right .
