Title: Did you get your Annual this christmas?
Post by: usedbustickets on December 31, 2013, 15:27:28 PM

Before you jump in with the funnies on only getting it at Christmas you should wait until I have explained the situation.

Which Annual was on your Christmas list?  For me it was either the Beano or The Victor, I'd never have got both!!  I was a fast reader and got through mine quickly, but my brother would get through his at a much slower pace, and I could never get him to swap Annuals before he had fully read his ... I do recall one Christmas giving him a swipe round the back of his head with my new Annual  to make him speed up.... didn't work he just went slower, and I got a clout from mum for my trouble .... great days!!

So what was your choice for Annual at Christmas, perhaps you still got one this Christmas?

I had a few friends called Jackie, Bluwise, but did you ever know anyone called Bunty?  It strikes me as a rather middle class, home counties, head girl at private school sort of name and therefore I knew no-one called Bunty.  :D

I do! I do! She was the little girl who lived in the pub. Bunty was 6 and actually quite ordinary except I thought she was special cos she lived above the big pub. Never met another though. I remember The School Friend comic too. Probably a few Buntys in there.

Bunty, Jinty, Jackie, Oh Boy, My Guy.......
Mum and dad would leave them at the bottom of our beds so that we would wake up to them on Christmas morning.....we were threatened not to get up too early and the annuals were to keep us quiet until a reasonable time ...... meanies.....
