More Dennis, what?

Yes it's Friday, sadly Crackerjack didn't return after Covid but we do have Blue Peter still but going back to all of that of course is boyhood memories not least our favourite comic characters be they Winker Watson, Little Plum or of course Dennis.

Dennis this year is celebrating 75 years of being ten which is being marked in different ways and recently a special was produced combining more recent Dennis stories feature obviously the wonder dog himself Gnasher by Nigel Auchterlounie and Nigel Parkinson. 

Storylines always follow childhood as it is today and there's getting away from the fact it's different in terms of what children eat - we gorged on fish fingers and mousses - we played more outside and with board games and they have smartphones and games consoles and school is very different (and in some respects a safer place for children.

Dennis even can cook which back the then he's of taken the mickey out of Walter (the Softie) for although there's always a another agenda with him.

This is 68 pages of modern menacing fun available from DC Thomson's website, Amazon, TJ Hughes or any decent newsagent.
