Beauty : Gallery

That say that Beauty is in the eye of the beholder .. I beheld this sight and its a beautiful image that will stay with me for the rest of my life.

Swap Shop V Tiswas

I have to say I was a Swap shop sort of a girl. I loved  adored the program it was the highlight of my very otherwise hum drum week. Cool kids watched it .. and those who actually got to swap something walked on hallowed ground.

I once got through because my Grand dad worked for BT and he used to work his magic , yet despite this I was once on the list to talk to Peter Davidson  and he was giving away Fungus and the Bogeyman books.

Now this is going to sound really snobby but I wasn't allowed to watched Tiswas to my parents it was common , uncouth and kids who wore they nasty nylon T-shirts with Superman on it watched it.

 I have to admit watching clips of it now it drives me as quite bonkers and not entirely politically correct. Who knows I can't judge something really unless I have watched it religiously.

Swap shop was hosted by the legend on the mirco phone Noel Edmonds if you only remember him from " Deal or No Deal " then quite frankly you haven't lived and , please don't darken my door step.

Sawp shop started at 9.30 Noel Edmonds was joined by John Craven ( his crazy jumpers ) I didn't have a colour TV my world was black and white till 1986 so the mind drug tripping colours didn't bother me. Also joining the fun was Keith Chegwin and Maggie Philbin.

And with this  religion was Swap shop Mothers knew better than to drag their children out on a Saturday Morning for the obligatory visit to Timothy Whites.

Was I too middle class ?

Would I be SO differant a person now if I had watched Tiswas ?

Mix it up

Make the ordinary extraordinary and mix your camera angles up !
