I remember well when tv started in Australia in time for the Olympic Games at the end of 1956. Noone could afford a tv then, but children could stand outside a shop and watch through the windows.
Glad we have art, Eh? Clever. I´m a dinosaur I watch programs on television (but it´s on the PC - really must get rid of our "TV" - my work gear is in front, LOL)
Iris; no, keep your tv, you never know when it might come in handy. Perhaps one day the internet will crash and the tv can be watched until "they" fix things.
I shall keep this short and sweet. Thank you! Thank You! Thank You! I am truly surprised to have received this: Laughing Horse Award from Yorkshire Pudding , also known as YP, for being the Australian Blogger of the Year. Click the link to read the nice things he said.
The original Words for Wednesday was begun by Delores and eventually taken over by a moveable feast of participants when Delores had computer troubles. Sadly, Delores has now closed her blog forever due to other problems. The aim of the words is to encourage us to write. A story, a poem, whatever comes to mind. If you are posting an entry on your own blog, please let us know so we can come along to read it and add a few encouraging words. This month the words/prompts are supplied by River (that's me) and can be found here This week's words/prompts are: 1. on the run 2. belong 3. street 4. breakfast 5. tent and this image: taken by "Genius" and allowed by Val . Also Charlotte's colour of the month which is Orient Red for September.
I like them :-)
ReplyDeletejabblog; I thought they were worth sharing.
DeleteSmiling. And I remember the time that programs were on television...
ReplyDeleteElephants Child; and weren't they so much better than the drivel that is called reality tv?

ReplyDeletehels; I was four then and had no idea tv even existed.
DeleteI love that first one!
ReplyDeleteBob; because it's so true?
DeleteYes, the first one is good.
ReplyDeleteAndrew; yes it is.
DeleteAnd if the earth were flat, cats would push everything off the edge.
ReplyDeleteJoanne; I have never had a cat that did that, so I could live on the edge and leave the middle to the rest of you.
