The Book of Me.... Written by You.... Prompt 45

This week's prompt is - Comics and Annuals

Like many children I whiled away hours reading comics and looking forward to the Christmas annuals that "Santa" bought with a degree of regularity.

So this week a trip down memory lane.
Share the names of the comics and annuals - your favourites, special characters, memories
Pop along to a popular on-line auction site and see what the annuals and comics of yesteryear sell
for!

I am trying to remember... the older I get, the harder it is to remember everything
from my younger life.
Here are a few of the Annuals that I do remember getting.

Oor Wullie... I have some here that I was sent after I came to Canada.
I love reading Oor Wullie, I love reading the language, and even today it
still makes me smile.

Its about a Scottish boy, and the antics he would get up to.

He always sat on his bucket.

Our Wullie was a comic strip in the paper, and I don't know anyone who didn't like it.

 

Also.. The Broons

its about a Scottish family. and the happenings in

families.. and the love also.

My favourite was Maw Broon, and The Wean..

Hen Broon was sooooo tall :)

I also have some Broons annuals.

 

 I remember getting  The Bunty

and also Diana

Usually at Christmastime, I would get one or two of these books.
I wish I could remember the others... for some reason I keep thinking there is one
called Sparkle, but I can't seem to find anything online..
Ahhhh... I remember another one, it was called Judy

My favourites were Bunty, Oor Wullie and The Broons..
Looking online, they aren't too expensive to get now... between 5 and 8 quid ( pounds )
I don't have the pound symbol on my computer :)

I thought it was great as a kid to get these annuals... no electronics back then...
