    Proper children's television. Fred Dinenage & Jack Hargreaves; absolute legends.

    Wonderful programme. Loved Jack Hargreaves (and his 'Out Of Town' programme) Fred, Jon Miller and Bunty James. Fabulously educational and fun.

    How, Blue Peter, Magpie, Vision On, Animal Magic, tons of cartoons
    and the odd Open University programme taught me everything I needed
    to know.
    And that one day I would grow up to be a highly successful.....

    This was not always the case. We use to buy veal ham and egg pie (Gala Pie) from a butcher who made his own. You'd sometimes get a slice with the rounded smaller ends of the egg sometimes with no yolk at all 😔. I guess this process was for larger commercial outlets and super market provision counters.

    • @keithf_
      @keithf_ 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I think what you're describing here is technological advancement.
      At one time we were NOT able to land a man on the moon.
      And perhaps more importantly, there was a time when gala pies did NOT have a continuous egg running through them.
