I warn you now that this post has *ZERO* B&S content.

Amongt my friends, one of the main topics for conversation is on kid's 
TV programmes.  Everyone remembers Mister Men, Button Moon, the Magic 
Roundabout etc., but i have become convinced that Portland Bill, Orm & 
Cheep and Jamie's Magic Torch were all broadcast directly to my house, 
and to no one else.  I may be tempted to believe that I only imagined 
these programmes, save from the fact that i have an old Portland Bill 
jumper, and and Orm & Cheep video.  Orm and Cheep is by far my 
favourite kids TV programme ever.  Basically, it's aobut Orm, a snail, 
and Cheep (duh), a baby bird.  

If anyone remembers these programmes, please post or mail, and we can 
discuss the delights of alternative kid's TV.

Bye

PS.  My brother's just dyed his hair purple, and it's really rather 
funny.
