OH Jon! Sunday Night at the L.P.....To think I was allowed to sit up and watch that on our Ferguson 236T.
It was a show of it's time. First broadcast on ITV in 1955. It was a winner due to the miserable programmes transmitted by the BBC at that time.
I must admit I find it embarrassing today with many cringe moments. It's fascinating looking back to see what we laughed at!
PS I did think about the drawer you suggest but dropped the idea in case I spilt the T cut on the carpet.
I think you can get a grant for a stairlift. John.
