Part of my late sixties childhood especially in school holiday mornings. White Horses (still got the single!), Casey Jones, Champion the Wonder Horse and the legendary Robinson Crusoe... and every so often Laurel and Hardy.

Fell in love with Julia in the school holidays when I was a boy. Watched all the black and white holiday morning tv back then. Champion the Wonder Horse and Casey Jones were my favourites and I still remember the words to the opening music. Remember also the helicopter rescue service which I believe was called The Whirlybirds! Great memories

Came back from school, did your homework and after tea went out to play with my mates in the road (lived in cul-de-sac) and ran all over the place. Yes we ate rubbish, lots of biscuits, sweets and fizzy pop but we had exercise, swimming and on bicycles ❤️❤️👍 👍 🏴🏴🌼🌼

I had a horse when I was a little girl, sort of a Percheron/pony mix, and though he wasn't a grand-looking horse, he thought he was, and he did this "running around the pasture" thing - a chasing game, and he even arched his neck and lifted his knees up like that.
