YouTube clip and New Christmas Fencast!

Dear Friends of the Fen,

It’s that time of the year again when we give you a FREE episode to listen to as a little Christmas treat.

This new Grunty Fencast brings a seasonal reflection from Mr South followed by the Christmas episode from 1991. When Dennis pops into The Bull, he finds that his friends and neighbours are having difficulty summoning up some Christmas cheer. Until, that is…

…well, you’ll just have to listen to it, won’t you?

Please click on Fencasts to go to our podcasts page, and Christmas Cheer is podcast number 6.

We’d also like to draw your attention to a little clip on YouTube, where you can hear a snippet from our new collection Archive Editions 8 whilst watching the big old tape recorder going round. To find the clip, please click Dennis and The Cheese Wire.

Don’t forget, our shop is always open for CDs, downloads, maps, and Mr South’s excellent books.

We’d like to thank you for your custom and wish you all a happy, safe and warm festive season and we look forward to being of service to you next year.

Kind regards,

Miss Edwards

MEN LAND ON THE MOON

NASA / Apollo 11 [Public domain]

How cheering to hear on the wireless today a reminder that on this day in 1969 some brave men took off in a big rocket to travel to the moon with the intention of walking upon it! Imagine that.

Of course I remember back in 1969 when I first heard, on the same wireless, news of the original lunar landing. How exciting that was. We had such a demand in the shop for rocket-shaped iced-lollies that Dennis nearly wore his lips out sucking ordinary lollies into a pointed shape.

Speaking of Dennis, here is a clip of him reminiscing with Mr South about the lunar landing.

The clip is taken from an episode of Dennis called “Venusians” which you can download or play for your own personal use from here.

This is a free download as a summer special offer!!

And the Venusians are part of the Archive Editions 5 CD which you can order from Dennis’s shop and herewith is a link to that.
