My 1970s Diary: May 2013

http://my1970sdiary.blogspot.com/2013_05_01_archive.html

Thursday, 30 May 2013. Mum's artwork - May 29 1977. You try telling the kids today that your telly consisted of Captain Pugwash, Blue Peter, Nationwide and Panorama, and they won't believe you. My Records For The Day avoided the hit parade, being a cover version of Walk Right In by Dr Hook, and a Kenny Rogers b-side (for, I note, the second time). Scottish Falsetto Sock Puppet Theatre (and Kev F the comic artist). Monday, 27 May 2013. It's A Knockout and sunbathing - May 27th 1977. Sunday, 26 May 2013.

My 1970s Diary: September 2013

http://my1970sdiary.blogspot.com/2013_09_01_archive.html

Sunday, 29 September 2013. Happy 10th Birthday - Sept 30 1977. Looking at the big header on this spread of my diary I thought maybe I'd gone big on celebrating my sister's birthday, but no that's in August. And my own 10th birthday was before I started doing a diary, so what could I commemorating with such emphasis? Radio 1. Honestly, the tenth anniversary of the start of Radio 1 was so big a deal I gave it a big headline? That's how interesting my teenage life was. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Picture Wi...

My 1970s Diary: June 2013

http://my1970sdiary.blogspot.com/2013_06_01_archive.html

Saturday, 15 June 2013. My Jubilee Arch - June 16 1977. My diary's a positive whirlwind of royalty imagery in the Jubilee summer, isn't it? Records For The Day were an interesting mix. Sure we all remember The Muppet Show and ELP, but Hollywood by Rufus? Scottish Falsetto Sock Puppet Theatre (and Kev F the comic artist). Tuesday, 4 June 2013. Bernard Manning and Murder Most English - June 2 1977. See this page on the Peoples History Of Pop. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Is a comic writer and artist whose w...

My 1970s Diary: April 2013

http://my1970sdiary.blogspot.com/2013_04_01_archive.html

Saturday, 27 April 2013. Why have I drawn Roy Thomas? Your guess is as good as mine. On a pair of days when I get artificial respiration demonstrated on me, go to a wedding, play football and celebrate the start of a new series of Call My Bluff (the New Series icon appears proudly and regularly throughout the diary, bless its cotton socks), I draw Roy Thomas. Nope, no idea. Records For The Day were Have I The Right by The Dead End Kids and Evergreen by Barbra Streisand. Saturday, 20 April 2013. Scottish ...

My 1970s Diary: John Burns art - May 24th 1977

http://my1970sdiary.blogspot.com/2013/05/john-burns-art-may-24th-1977.html

Sunday, 26 May 2013. John Burns art - May 24th 1977. Beautiful John Burns art in this spread from my diary from May 1977. This was the most common way I would decorate the pages of my diary, by dessicating my copies of Look-In, by far the best drawn and most expensively printed of the comics I received every week, and sticking them into my diary with Cow gum before designing the page around it. I use the word designing in its loosest sense. Costing me a potential £750 in resale value. Kids eh?

Kev F comic art: November 2014

http://kevfcomicart.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html

Saturday, 29 November 2014. Flipchart-o-rama - Kev F's big draw. The best thing about getting in early before I have to start my Comic Art Masterclasses is that I get to do a drawing on the flipchart. And the very best thing is if the kids get to watch me drawing at least some of it. These are all left behind at the schools for them, hopefully, to display or maybe give away as a prize. I can't see them going for millions in years to come, but they're fun while they last. Links to this post. Given the cha...

The Oink! Blog: January 2015

Friday, 30 January 2015. 48: HUNGRY FOR HUMOUR? As well as remembering running to the newsagents first thing on Saturdays. To get them as a child, it's clear this was the day they came out. Not Fridays. Not sure why the cover says that then but that's the case, so we're back to Fridays here on the blog. (I can remember Buster. Coming out on Saturdays too yet it said 'Every Monday. On the cover. Strange.). Anyway, on to something more interesting than all that. Coming back to see how each issue was 'assem...

Wednesday, 24 June 2015. 2: THE REAL GHOSTBUSTERS. GO TO PART ONE: THOMAS THE TANK ENGINE AND FRIENDS. An incredibly simple advert but it can't be denied it's a powerful and attention grabbing one. This appeared across Marvel UK. At some point prior to this I'd discovered Filmation's Ghostbusters. In early January the brand new cartoon started on Mondays at 4:20pm (we remember such silly things don't we? And I was hooked. Then about a month or so later the family was watching Surprise, Surprise. The date...
