After six months of washing lines I have run out of pegs so after showing other people’s laundry I thought that I might finish with one of own…
Up above the streets and houses, rainbow climbing high
Paint the whole world with a rainbow.
Anyone remember this…
I had to sit through endless episodes and videotapes of this with my children in the late 1980s. My favourites were Rod, Jane and Freddy…
Well, Jane mostly.
Good finish 🙂 what’s the next challenge 🤔

I am going to have to give that some thought.

Strangely topical actually, Andrew! In the last village (Delphi), there was a very large and very old stray dog struggling with the hot weather and usually laying in the shade. He had a very large sorrowful face….hence we christened him Bungle….

I always felt sorry for whoever was wearing that costume.

Is it just me, or does that woman look a lot (and might be) Celine Dion?
The guys certainly look weird . . . but that could just be the 80s. Although, no matter how I look at them, the hair, face, and foreheads all look out of proportion.
. . . must be a British thing . . .

Mmmmm, Jane….. She certainly looks ‘armless enough.

A beautifully colourful line to finish off the series.
And yes, I do remember Rainbow but it fell between my own childhood and the arrival of my daughter so I did’t see much of it.
Anyway, thanks for the challenge, Andrew – it was a great way to kick off a Monday morning.
Here I say goodbye post: https://wp.me/p35cNK-qkE

Thanks Debbie. I am away with my youngest granddaughter. No Rainbow but a lot of Peppa Pig.

You could have at least removed the creases to make them look washed!

I couldn’t wash all those colours together.

I remember Rainbow very well. My five children were born within an eighteen-year period, we began with Magic Roundabout but most of the children’s programs from the seventies, eighties, and nineties are etched in my memory. My favourites were Thomas the Tank Engine and Postman Pat.
The first grandchild arrived in the year 2000 and for the first few years he lived with us and so we began all over again.

Camberwick Green and Trumpton were big favourites of mine.

My youngest ones like Peppa Pig.
Talking of kids, and going back to the Premier Inn, the grandkids kids can eat free at breakfast. Two kids per adult!. We go to one nearby, not to stay the night, but just for breakfast.

Pegs are important. Just think if someone took a picture of my washing line and the pega weren’t coordinated. I’d be so embarrassed

Very colourful! Though the TV show was outside my timeframe, so I was singing I Can Sing a Rainbow in my best* Cilla Black voice.
