When I was a wee small lad, my brother and I would always find a copy of the latest "Playhour and Robin" waiting for us when we visited Grandma and Granddad. Our early years were filled with the exploits of Num Num, Tommy Trouble and Bunny Cuddles. As we grew into men, the pranks of Wizard Weezle, the morphings of Moony and the antics of Nutty Noddle became fading memories - to the point at which I would have sworn blind to anyone that it was Catweazle on the back cover!

And then, oh what joy to stumble across an old copy of P&R in an Edinburgh shop recently ... and a copy from our era as well! It was in my eager hand for two quid and out of its protective wrapper quicker than you could say "Coojeebear".

So now, for anyone else who spent a few short years of their innocent childhood with Sonny and Sally in Happy Valley, I give you a small corner of the World Wide Web devoted to Playhour and Robin's finest ...
