"Continued from last year" - Jan 1 & 2 1975

And so we come to that time where My 1970s Diary is giving us a window to half a century ago. I started the diary in the summer of 1974, and those early pages might be fun to look at sometime. But 1975 was the first full year captured by my diary, and the year in which it developed its distinctive style. 

As you can see in the dozen spreads that I've put into My 1975 Diary 2025 Calendar (on sale now), the diary goes on to record my growing love of comics. As we can see here, I'd already started drawing my own. I'm on the 16th issue of my own Planet Of The Apes comic, which I really must dig out and share some day.

Given the chance to watch TV all day, while drawing comics and fillling in this diary at the same time, certainly seems to appeal to me. Read a book child! Oh dear, too late I fear.

My Records For The Day are mostly forgotten items, the like of which you might find in a charity shop but won't hear on the radio these days.
