September already, the children are back at school, the leaves are falling and the nights are steadily darkening. As there is no improvement in the weather, what better way than to snuggle down in front of the TV, and watch a retro classic. With cable, satellite, DVD’s and the Internet you can reminisce whilst watching Starsky and Hutch, The Walton's or even Charlie’s Angels. Don’t forget to get out the soda stream and salted peanuts!
To keep with the theme, we have a great retro TV inspired shopping list for you this month, a look at everyone’s favourite Orkan — Mork plus items for the die cast collectors and hints to help when buying teddy bears.
Don’t forget if there are any burning issues you would like to know about or toys you would like us to explore get in touch.
Read on and enjoy…
