An Annual Event

 Mooching round Thorpe Arch boot sale this Mother's Day morning. There's a brisk wind and a Spring chill.

I saw these annuals on a stall. Champion the Wonder Horse is not one you often see. I liked that show as a kid, with it's catchy theme tune.

Is there anything you would have got?

    Daktari, and perhaps Look-In ?

    1. Yes I was tempted by Daktari. I saw Tarzan on another stall.

  2. Thought I might be interested in the 'Look In' annual ... but then I saw Metal Mickey on the cover, and that was me backing right off !

    1. Yeah, I have to admit I don't know Metal Mickey at all. What is it!

  3. A dreadful ITV sitcom, from the late 70s/early 80s, featuring a naff robot delivering weak punchlines.
    Little kids liked it, but I'm not sure anyone else did.
    As a robot, Mickey was only marginally more convincing than Dusty Bin !

    1. Sounds tinny Mish. Wonder if there any toys. I really don't recall Mickey. Between 1979 and 1983 I lived abroad so dint see any English TV. In 84 we moved to Wales. I remember Dusty Bin tho! I've seen little plastic toy wind-ups of DB!
