Mark MaguireBig clean up going on with storage boxes in our attic room at the moment. Expect a long thread of varying frequency over the next while based on discoveries from the last quarter of the 1900s and the turn of the century. #SpringClean #TidyUp #DeClutter #ReOrganise #Memories #Mastodaoine
I seem to remember contentious Paddington Bear discourse on the Other Site a while ago. Should Paddington have yellow boots or not. I found this pillow case which indicates both were options in the late 1970s/ early 1980s. #Paddington #PaddingtonBear #Wellies #MemoryLane
Bit of original Star Wars stationery merch from the year of the franchise’s first release, 1977.

My kind of stamps. A co-worker got all these comic stamps on one A4 envelope from the US, about 10 or 15 years ago. They thought I’d like the envelope and I did. Found them again yesterday after years. #WhatHaveYouDoneForMePhilately #Stamps #Comics #MemoryLane #DCcomics

Gerard Cunningham ✒️Trying to imagine a decent Dan Dare movie and failing, though they're probably capable of making one infused with Brexit-inspired WWII plucky blitz spirit.
@faduda It would be so difficult. It *could* be done well and in an interesting way. But I wouldn’t have any faith they’d do him justice. ☹️
@MarkMaguire Really the only way to do it would be as a straight caricature of a stiff upped lipped Dudley DoRight.
