I have just seen a clip of the "Multi Coloured Swap Shop" and I just thought I'd test myself on the phone number that for about 5 years was on the bottom of the screen and every child knew.


I'm not sure I have got it right - and in the wikipedia age I could obviously check, but it just feels right.


What odd thing can you remember from so so long ago.

Just called it - does not work anymore. I've been trying to build up the courage for 30 year and now I have done it - nothing! how rubbish is that.



I'm glad PGC has remembered the crossing the road rules from Tufty. In Peckham its look right, look left, look in front, look behind, and run........ to the relative safety of ED.....

Multi-Coloured Swap Shop, more commonly known simply as Swap Shop, was a UK children's television programme. It was broadcast on Saturday mornings on BBC1 for 146 episodes in six series between 1976 and 1982. It was ground-breaking in many ways: by being live, sometimes up to three hours in length, and using the phone-in format extensively for the first time on TV.

Sorry, Quids, even as a child I just couldn't stand Chris Tarrent, besides I was (am) a middle-class swot, so it was Swap Shop for me.


PGC, you're right, I'm afraid, you weren't in it. I was an extremely exclusive society of two, but since Mockney has forgotten all about it, I guess it's me who's sounding weird now...

      Bitey Fox.

      By Rockets · Posted

      Some foxes are very tame. The foxes that live near the electricity sub-station thing on the corner of Calton and Woodwarde will happily walk up to you/passed you. They are some of the best looking foxes around so clearly being well-fed - glorious coats and bushy tails but interested in humans and keen to engage/be fed rather than being scared.

      Let’s not all get scared of the foxes now. Most likely explanation is protecting its den or association with food. We have foxes, and cats and they are no bother to each other. The fox will leave when the cats are out.

      Bitey Fox.

      By Happyme5 · Posted

      I remember seeing something a few years ago on TV about a fox that was actually biting through people's shopping / takeaway food bags.  It was situated in an alleyway.  Not in London.  Very interesting in how the  urban foxes brain development has  been affected by their surroundings.   Not an exact quote from Darwin.  It's the adaptable that survive / not the strongest or the most intelligent.   I would be worried if a fox came close me.   Because they might be after my fur babies and they carry a lot of nasties.   Although they look beautiful from a distance or on a 🎄 card.
