Sinister: "then we all get in the bath..."

[Tjonrr at xxx.com]

all this talk of the lion the witch and the wardrobe gives me flashbacks to
when i was little (late 80s i think) and the whole familywould gather round
the tv on sunday nights to watch the series they made of it. sundays was the
day all us weans had our baths and washed our hair so my memory mainly
consists of that shampoo/clean hair smell that you get in hairdressers. im
sure it was not such an idyllic picture of family bliss in reality but you
know that saying about seeing the past through rose tinted specs or something.
dont actually member much about the program except the stunning animatronic
lion. somewhat bizarrley the only other thing i member is that it was on after
the clothes show. never read the books but i have recently reread mervyn
peakes Gormenghast trilogy which i think is in a similar vein. its pretty
brilliant though the last part is a bit of a headfuck, due to the mental
deterioration of the author when he was writing it apparantly.
