[@lynbarnett8970]

Ha yes I remember just having 3 channels, even with just 3 there was good programs, remember double bill of sat night Hammer House of Horror, lost in space, space 1999 and more. Even comedy like George.& Mildred, Love Thy Neighbor, Dick Emery. I do feel sad when I look back, but so please & proud to have been a part of that then. The internet & phones have ruined alot of social life, even though it has it's good parts. People communicated better, wrote letters, took time out. Happy day❤️

Nicely put together! I had almost forgotten channels used to close for the night :)

Weird how these can still give a strong sense of day of the week and time of day.
