LION 1969

This is my favourite LION annual and cover! From the year of years, 1969. I was 8 for most of it. By the time Apollo had landed on the Moon I was 9 and looking forward to 'growing up' the following year!
I don't know why I was in such a rush to pupate, life was sweet.

I decided early on that I wasn't going to grow up, not nohow. And so far I've kept to that vow. In fact ... oh, excuse me one moment ...

"What? ... Now? ... Awww, that's so not fair!"

Gee. Mum says I've got to put away my toys and go to bed now. Night, guys.
