Tell me a story, jackanory...

Some years ago in a land far away there was a story telling programme called 'Jackanory'. It wasn't usually the highlight of this girl's after school TV watching, but one time my interest was captured by Rik Mayall - he was famous in the UK for his role in 'The Young Ones', maybe not so much here in Canada. He read George's Marvellous Medicine by Roald Dahl - I loved every minute. I already loved Roald Dahl books, but I loved seeing the story read in such an animated way. A few weeks ago I showed this to my youngest daughter who is going through a Roald Dahl phase. For once she agreed with me and loved something 'from the olden days' too.

 



This is the first of my 23 things this week...more coming later this week...
