Was watching tonight's Stateline programme on ABCTV 1....ofcourse the WA edition.
Interesting program on 'Sculptures by the Sea' at Cottosloe Beach...this is all part of the Perth Arts Festival. I know Sydney have a 'Sculptures by the Sea' each year at Bondi or Bronte me thinks. Don't know if other states do them on their beaches...if they don't you are missing out on some great community art.
Anyway throughout this program, the background music was..................
'Oh I do like to be beside the seaside'.
Emotional nostalgia flooded over this poor old dear. Yes that was our footy club theme song in them there days at the Junction Oval.
It evoked memory after memory for me as a young child, then later a teeny bopper with autograph book in hand clambering over the fence at the end of a game getting the prized signatures of some of my favourrites over the years at the Juction Oval who donned the red, white & black tri-colour.
Favourites such as Peter Bennet, Brian Walsh, Keith Drinan, Les Foote, Eric Guy, Paul Dodd, Bill Coady, Bud Annand, and ofcourse those blond bombshell's ......Allan Jeans (yes he was one folks in his younger days!!) Neil Roberts and the greatest hunk of them all ....... Carl Ditterich.
Oh that tune evoked such wonderful memories for me of an era gone bye.
It's wonderful being a Saints supporter over the generantions
