My main 'memory' of Sesame Street is that I only ever watched half of it - my Mum decided I could have an hour of TV a day when I was little so I didn't realise until later in my life that Sesame Street had a beginning and went for an hour! I think I watched the second half and then went on to Play School, which I liked more.Karihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15887621874869110597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6742756814967464811.post-307647580285645872013-09-04T18:58:46.604+10:002013-09-04T18:58:46.604+10:00Actually that post was from Linda at the Lentil In...Actually that post was from Linda at the Lentil Institution...oops!Lindahttp://lentilinstitution.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6742756814967464811.post-72127958480714835802013-09-04T18:56:31.009+10:002013-09-04T18:56:31.009+10:00What a gorgeous lunch!
