Memories of Blue Peter. I’m living in Canada now, so to see this post was wonderful. I remember those Christmas appeals for lifeboats, and water, and ….. and….. Do you remember collecting all those stamps?
Thanks for the trip down memory lane.

Thanks for the comment. I was a ‘Blue Peter’ kid so I remember all of those appeals. I got a badge once, can’t remember what for though! I hope life in Canada is good?

When I was at junior school (1962-66) the headmaster was fanatical about collecting for RNLI. I never knew why and it was curious because the school was in Rugby which is just about as far away from the sea as you can get in England!

Maybe he had heard of tsunami and thought Rugby could be flooded!
