Morning Peeps!
How ya’ll doing?
I had a plan to create a planner theme to reflect my childhood TV preferences.
I restricted myself to 80s children’s telly (because if I included all the TV shows I remember, I’d need a bigger planner!) then I had the tough decision to make about which actually made it in.
Much to my husband’s disgust, I didn’t include Superted or Bananaman! π
I included some brightly coloured washi because the 80s weren’t about subtlety.
There are lots of famous shows depicted but I included a few less-remembered ones such as Bertha, forget me not farm and The Wuzzles. (I remember crying when they axed forget me not farm and I used to have a wuzzles clock and Rainbow Brite doll….so many memories!)
When I’d finished I also realised that I’ve subconsciously revealed all my childhood crushes… the earliest being Andy Crane in the broom cupboard. (A couple of years ago they had a 30th birthday party for cbbc and had all the presenters back….he doesn’t look any different!)
(I was always more Thundercats than He-man…)
Then ITV introduced us to Pat Sharp (who still looks lovely now but has a much more sensible hair cut) and the lovely Neil Buchanan.
I adore Neil and he is so talented, but when looking up the picture on Google I found out where he is now; he’s in a middle-aged rock band!!! I love it! π€£ It’s so at odds with the kids TV but makes me so happy. (Honestly, go and search it…you won’t be disappointed!)
(Orville! π… More importantly, the legend that was Roy Castle π)
So what did you watch? Who were your first celeb crushes? Did you enjoy my confession? π
Have fun!
