I remember "Round the Horne"!

When it comes to the cost of our hobby, I often reflect that, if I had known "then" what I know now, I might have had a different purchasing strategy. I'm hooked on the US theme but, the things I drool over now (and cannot justify the financial outlay), would have been within my reach if I hadn't gone for bulk cheaper end things. But I enjoy what I've got - even if the locos are like sacrificial lambs on the tight curves of my trailer layout!

So was I, at the time.... but it doesn't stop me enjoying the recordings! ;)

Way, way funnier than much of what passes for "comedy" these days......

Aha Round the Horn, got it - used to listen to that on Steam Radio very funny as you say. Just forgot the detail. Plus of course the goons and tellygoons were complete favourites. My particular one being the last tram telegoon show. Link below.


Not at all sure what this all has to do with the cost of our hobby but what a fun thread drift!
