Time for your exercises', and then John Aldridge would give us 5 minutes of beautiful piano playing and told us what exercises to do He was the only person I ever knew who could play the piano and talk at the same time I sure can't! Carol MacKenzie Wow thanks for this it also brought back memories of being a wee tot and hearing the "Get up get up get up you sleepy heads!!!" and Saturday morning hits like Gary Glitter "I'm back I'm back as a matter of fact I'm back" or something like that and my Gran's favorite "Tie a yellow ribbon round the old oak tree " They were special times and a special childhood in spite of the war Thank you for the memories Juliet RADIO RHODESIA My name is Liz Bean and I am Pattie Pink's daughter Having seen the email below I thought I might drop you a line for a blast from the past Sadly Norman passed away in January this year and Mum is now living in a home in Ipswich near Chri y my sister Mum was sadly diagnosed with Alzheimer's and it has been heart breaking to see her deteriorate in front us However she does love to get letters and emails Liz Bean Having read this article, it rather dates us as we are now talking 50 years on!! Leslie Sullivan was a wonderful character, who lived next door to me in a flat named Mon Ami, 167 Fife Avenue in the early 60's His daughter Vera is married to Colin Lockie (now living in the Cape somewhere) used to live in Mutare We often spoke of those time when she was here One of Leslie's on air gaffes and dubious jokes (in those days), was the one about - what happens when you put a cat in the washing machine? You get a sock in the pu !! Leslie was banned for a few weeks after that Coincidently, Sally Donalson's son, Gregg, has an accountancy practice here in Mutare He has since moved down to South Africa somewhere a while ago but the practice still exists SINKS HONE I enjoyed seeing all the old popular names of people who broadcast from the RBC One other name people might remember is John Ward, who was the meteorologist giving us the weather report at night Sadly he has also passed on, on the 17th November, 2011 in England To ie McChlery I am sure you must know that LM Radio is up and running again from Maputo and if you have broadband especially over the weekend or in the evening when some service providers allow you free band width then it is worth a listen to for a walk down memory lane They still use some of old jingles "Have a Happy Day" and there website where you can pick-up the radio stream link from is full of fascinating history of those days in Lourenco Marques and features on all the old DJ's Gerry Wilmot and Leslie Suliivan are featured All the best Malcolm I remember so well all those great times getting up to the radio in Rhodesia and the lovely announcers, In my new life in OZ I live in a small city now called Toowoomba and we have a community radio station run by the volunteers mostly our age and they play all the old tunes of the fifties and sixties as I drive around selling printing they bring back many good days in our loved country so even far over the sea's we remember you all God bless you all Clive Puzey Do Burdett was a very dear and close friend who died at a young age of cancer We still have an antique set of draws which my mother inherited from Don It is to this day called Don Burdett We also have an oil painting of Him My mother went with him to Nice to stay with mutual friends We also knew Don's father Ernest, a very gentle and kind man like Don I used to go the studios in Manica road to watch radio plays being recorded that Don produced Don lived in the avenues for some time in a cottage behind Leslie and Maria Sullivan I remember driving to work and watching the drivers in the next car hooting with laughter as I was at Leslie's jokes I told my children the tale of Nicky Nicky Tembo Oh So Rembo, Ooh Ma Muchi Gamma Gamma Guchi Even today we occasionally use it I used to ride with Martin Lock on Sunday mornings We would spend 2 or 3 hours roaming round Chishawasha and the farms around there Dear Keith Kennedy and his second wife Lin I appeared on TV with him and Lawford Sutton Pryce Show was directed by Cy Jaffe ( who I am in regular contact with him) I was active in Reps for several years and appeared with Sue Burnett in the first Caltex play of the year directed by Ken Marshall and written by Neil Jardine (a great guy) Life was so simple then We worked and played hard, but had a lot of fun and camaraderie We left Zim in 1994 and lived in London till 2009 when we moved to an old family home on the beach in Holland Very bracing!
