I used to love all cowboy songs when I was young , and listened to Frankie Laine when I was a nipper , one day my dad caught me listening to high noon , and say blimey you like that song ? I said yes , and he said he used to sing along to Frankie Laine in the Naafi when in the army !

@katyjay I used to love champion the wonder horse and remember the song , inspired me to go and work in the horseracing stables when I left school in 1974 , another programme that got on my dads wick was Skippy the kangaroo, I think it was all that, talking to the kangaroo business he found unbelievable, but I loved it, also the alsatian dog rin tin tin jumps to mind too that was another children's programme I loved!

I had Bayko which I loved, and metal meccano, also an electronic engineer kit which you could use to make things like morse code transmitters and a simple radio. I also collected Action Man stuff. One of my relatives passed on a "visible man" to me which was a teaching aid for the human body. My brother had Montini which was a cheaper version of lego.
We could only afford the cheapo version of action man , think it was called Johnny commando or something !

I always thought Torchy and Fireball XL5 were a bit naff. But the Clangers were terrific. Who remembers the Soup Dragon supplying the Clangers with Green Soup and for after, Blue String Pudding.
Their "voices" were made by slide whistles almost a cult program where i worked.
Throwing Captain Scarlet and Thunderbirds into the mix !!

My maternal grandparents always used to buy me a torch for Xmas. The type that had red and green sleeves that could be raised by a small button/lever over the bulb, thus giving a coloured beam of light.
That reminds me of a children's program in the 60s called Torchy , does anyone remember that along with Fireball XL5 , and the clangers !

Something on the telly the other day reminded me of a toy I had as a kid. It was called Hocus Pocus, 3 cups, that fitted inside each other. The was a small ball or something between 2 of them and depending how you seperated the cups, depended on seeing the ball or not.
Did you remember those two balls on a stick ? Called kernackers or something of that ilk .
