Memories amplified
'How good to see The Argonauts Club (C8) mentioned,' gushes Robyn Lewis of Raglan. 'I joined at age seven but didn't know the origin of Lysander 42 until I was 16 and studying ancient history for the leaving certificate in 1965. My brother was Aeschylus 30.' Megwenya Matthews (aka Timotheus 31) of North Turramurra writes: 'Being an Argonaut was a highlight of my childhood – the joy of hearing my contributions on the wireless, the serialised stories, games of charades, the songs and the erudition of the experts on nature (Tom the Naturalist aka Alan Colefax), art (Jeffrey Smart), literature (A. D. Hope) and music (Mr Melody Man aka Lindley Evans). Best of all was when my mother took me to a live session in Darlinghurst where Mac (Atholl Fleming), Chris (Leonard Teale) and the others presented the program. None were as I'd imagined but all lived up to expectations! Afterwards I sometimes sneaked an episode of Blue Hills, but my mother didn't really approve!' Fair enough. It was pretty racy stuff. Fans of the radio comedy Yes, What? (C8) have suggested it's time for Michael Fletcher to re-format. Both Judy Burge of Kelso and Marilyn Irons of North Narrabeen got theirs in CD form from the National Film and Sound Archive of Australia. The current political climate has been impacting the viewing of Geoff Gilligan of Coogee, with recent titles being The Russians Are Coming and I t's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World. According to Geoff, 'It's all a bit scary.' Watch 'em with your loved ones, Geoff. No man is an island. Meri Will of Baulkham Hills keeps her cool: 'When our family bought a refrigerator in the '50s, the ice chest (C8) was relegated to the garage. Dad used it as a tool cupboard until he died in 2005. Now my sister-in-law uses it to store items of pottery before firing. Its latch and hinges remain in good order, ensuring a snug seal.'
