I remember watching this. I was 7. Our World (1967 TV program) - Wikipedia

My son gave me this. Below is an image of an Iron Age warrior I did through AI.
My bro sent this. 'Don't be silly I'm a girl'.
Day 24. The greatest rock and roll record.
Twenty-third of December
Covered in snow
TRAIN DREAMS, now playing in select theaters and on Netflix tomorrow.
Very enjoyable. I got this record from a charity shop.
White Christmas (film) - Wikipedia
I got our daughter to watch this as she said she fancied watching White Christmas as this is my favourite from the film.
Day 22 of the rocking advent calendar. We saw Link Wray live and Susan shook his hand.
I wonder if my Grandson would like this? I watched it as a child and it was very influential. Susan remembers emulating the big eyes in her drawings.
Marine Boy is one of the first color anime to be shown in a dubbed form in the U.S., and later in Australia and the United Kingdom. It was originally produced in 1965 in Japan as Undersea Boy Marine (海底少年マリン, Kaitei Shōnen Marin) by Minoru Adachi and animation company Japan Tele-Cartoons. It was sold outside Japan via K. Fujita Associates Inc., with Warner Bros.-Seven Arts Television handling worldwide distribution of the English-language version. The series was distributed in syndication in the United States starting in 1966.[1]
This wass the local printer's social club. Started out as a canteen but under my Dad's guidance had it installing a bar with all the amenities of a social club. We chose this for our photos. Now it is housing as the printers is no more. If you are wondering what we sounded like at that time go here
I got this classic film for my bro for Christmas but he's opened it so I am not spoiling the surprise. Those Magnificent Men in Their Flying Machines - Wikipedia
Day 19 of the rockin' advent calendar. Saw this band a couple of times around then and as you would expect they were phenomenal.
Susan wants to see lots of Christmas Carol versions this season. So I suggest this one.
So today Boss Radio 66 stopped transmitting in the UK. Bummer. Susan played this though. Remember it?
Boss just played it. Probably my favourite Nina Simone song. Feeling Good - Wikipedia
Accapella and in Latin but it still was a hit. Gaudete - Wikipedia
Watched this version today. As I said Susan wanted to see lots of versions this season. Not bad. Worth a watch.Scrooge (1935 film) - Wikipedia
There was a movie The War Lord (1965) set in the Norman period with a famous soundtrack. (Theatrical trailer)
Sue picked this up for me from the chazza. Colour section on the 2000 Hastings reenactment. I like this font.
Rockin' advent calendar. Susan chose this one and a good one it is.
The Chieftains perform Brian Boru’s March at Knappogue Castle, County Clare.
This premiered 50 years ago the other day. I posted about this film on another blog and people said it was boring. I think it is a musical and the soundtrack is the movie scene by scene. The Chieftains who I like were heavily featured. Barry Lyndon – The Chieftains
A fictionalised version of Radstock in the era of the Great War. A lovely book ideal for seasonal fiction.
The Phil Spector Christmas record was a family tradition that was me playing the only Christmas album we had. Great songs. A Christmas Gift for You from Phil Spector - Wikipedia
This completely passed us by when it came out in 82. We were introduced to its delights by a couple of Danish lads we stayed with when doing a gig a few years ago. Filmed in Wiltshire. Tell me if you like it.The Safety Dance - Wikipedia
We have these books. There is a legend that Jesus visited Priddy when he came to Somerset. There is a saying 'as sure as our Lord walked on Priddy green.' We are fans of the place and have been to the Horse fair there (or was it a sheep fair?) which was amazing and we went to a folk festival there too.
We attempted to cover this song from the Stones Hippy phase.
My bro informed me TPTV are reshowing this soon. I shall watch this. I was a fan as a kid. The Man from U.N.C.L.E. - Wikipedia
A record from a Bristol band we used to see back in the day. 78 or 79. Good song.
We watched this film last night on TPTV. Very good. Evokes the era well with a good cast and soundtrack. With the Epstein thing it seemed to resonate with today too. Scandal (1989 film) - Wikipedia
Repeated Tuesday 16th December at 9:10pm
This album came out 60 years ago. It was significant for me and my sister as it was the first Beatles album we didn't buy. We looked at the cover and thought 'too weird' (I was 5 my sis was 8).
The Byrds "Mr. Tambourine Man" on The Ed Sullivan Show on December 12, 1965
This was a d-i-y project from years ago. Phil was our next door neighbour who had a studio up the road so it was a local project. Someone wanted to put it out but it didn't happen.
Ralph Mitchard guitar and vocals - Phil Cass bass and mixing. From 1993. Recorded at Radsonic Radstock
Mike Reynolds played this last night and we were pleased with how it sounded. Possibly best of our 21st century recordings.
I remember when it was broadcast. Gideon Coe played this last night.
This was proposed but never produced as it was rejected by Corgi management who considered the Beatles as a passing fad.
It came out on the Metamorphosis album in 1975 which I had. Stevie Wonder song.
Day 10 of the rocking advent calendar.
Day 9 of the rocking advent calendar. This is a great song by the Killer.
Our eldest worked in this now closed toy shop and made this film 17 years ago. We chose the music. Eric Snook was once Mayor of Bath and had a shop in London too.
Just heard this on Bosss and was struck by the songwriting. March 1967
I first heard this as a teen when a workmate of Henry had a greatest hits which I borrowed. It was great to hear the good stufff.
I remember my Dad coming into my bedroom as I was at that time living with my parents and saying incredulously ' John Lennon's been shot' with an air of disbelief.
Day 8 on the advent calendar. Probably the best clip ever on Youtube.
Day 7 advent. When I was young we went on a school trip to France and we found a bar with a jukebox and a pinball in it so we were in hog heaven drinking smoking and shooting balls. This was on the juke box on the flip of Summertime Blues.
