The Good Old Days

Tin Tin came round to the mansion to spend time with me today. She was feeling very nostalgic for the days when Thunderbirds aired on BBC 2 and gained a cult following, especially when there was a Blue Peter craft in the shape of her home island, Tracy Island. We looked through her big red scrapbook and found photos of all the good times we shared when airing on BBC 2 with our friends, including all the times I spent with my friend Slomo and the time Captain Scarlet got drunk one Christmas, which made us laugh. We then watched archive tapes the BBC had lent to Tin Tin of all the days Thunderbirds was broadcast on the channel, including their landmark airing of Trapped In The Sky. Tin Tin shed a tear at the end and hugged me. Us sisters are always nostalgic for anything.
