I wish everyone a happy Christmas and a new year less fraught than this one.
While most folk will be enjoying a break, my wife and I run a licensed boarding cattery which will keep us very busy. |

Its weird being the same age as old people.
You are either part of the problem or part of the solution |

I ran out of car related Christmas greeting ideas so you'll just have to put up with my other old technology interest, pre-war television.
Here's George VI giving his Christmas message (even if he never broadcast it on television.)

Peter- such an interesting photo brings back memories. When I were but a wee lad, my folks brought home a T.V. set very similar to that with the mirror in the lid. It was probably in 1947 when I was only 3 years old.

Hi rover;
You must have been living in the SE at the time then, because Ally Pally was the only transmitter then.
Sutton Coldfield started up for the Midlands next in 1949.

As Far as I am aware, the transmitter was, as you said, Alexander Palace. We lived in Dunstable, Bedfordshire.
We left there late 1949 to arrive in Melbourne Australia on the 4th of January 1950.
