Hello! I'm writing a story about a girl who goes to Art School in London from her home in Carlisle and I would like to hear from anybody what the classes and teachers were like in the 1960s. I would also like to know what sort of accommodation was available to students in London in the 1960s? Thank you very much! TJ
Listening to Round The Horne being played on Angel Radio. Brings back happy memories of Sundays listening to the light programme while mum was cooking a delicious Sunday roast. Happy days.
Hi everyone, I listen to The Wireless, because it plays my type of music. It not on DAB but it is on things like Alexa and Google, on an app called WirelessClub and online wirelessclub.co.uk. The Saturday Club from 7am to 10am is all sixties and they are looking for listeners to write in with requests, especially for unusual songs from the 60s, And memories of the 60s like dance venues,mit’s like the old Radio 2 Brian Mathews, Sound of The Sixties, I’ve written in a few times and they always play my requests.

Not the Who song, but the recently released Michael Caine DVD, about the 60s era. Have got this and have watched it twice, plenty of music through it as well, plus Michael Caine movie clips, acts like Beatles, Stones, Who, Marianne Faithful and Twiggy, plus Mary Quant plus others are in it, its 1hr and 20 minutes long but a good bio-doc type film only on DVD though.

I enjoy listening to the Motown sound, in either CD or Vinyl, and have some favourites from that sixties period, also have seen Motown the Musical 3 times in London, mind you on an organised coach trip lots of memory's in that.
I'm a big fan of Sandie Shaw. Is there body else a fan out there? I've just bought her book "The World at my Feet", it would be great if there was anyone else out there.
