The Jackie AlbumI have been looking for this recently and all our local shops sold out of it - went to Eastbourne this afternoon and found it in HMV 
What a delight - all the old favourites, Donny Osmond, David Cassidy, The Rubettes - Terry Jacks - Seasons in the Sun - its great!!
I embarrassed my youngest DD singing along very loudly in the car on the way home.
Anyone over the age of 40 who wants to bring back their teenage or younger memories will love it 
Play.com have it too

I had it for Christmas as well. What I love about it is that it has all the songs I used to listen to on the radio rather than the ones usually on the compilation albums.
I showed dd(14) the poster of Donny Osmond as she was watching him in Identity, and told her he was older than DH and me to which she replied that he didn't look it.

Me and my sis used to argue over who was going to read the mag first, mum would only buy us one copy, said it was daft having 2. Might have save rows though.
We went on to My Guy after that.

My complete magazine buying history was Treasure, Diana, Jackie, Petticoat, then Cosmopolitan, GoodHousekeeping and She. But now it is mainly Knitting mags. Wonder what that says about me?
|
Fi
|
I still get She mag and of course knitting ones.
Quite like that Easy Living one too.

I had a photo of my pet dog printed in Twinkle once - in the Pets Corner section - and my prize was a plastic tea set

All these famous peeps on here.
I used to love my tea sets.

carolinne used to get Twinkle. I don't know if she will remember this herself but one day the paperboy didn't deliver it and our Dad had to call the newsagent. We did laugh when he exclaimed most indignantly that his Twinkle hadn't arrived.
|
Fi
|
Oh dear, bet the newsagent wondered who he had on the phone.

My list has similarities Jacquie  - Jack and Jill, Princess (via June- and- Schoolfriend and Bunty) Diana, Jackie, Petticoat, Honey, 19, Cosmopolitan, Mother, Prima , Woman's Weekly. I guess next stop will be "Yours" or the Saga magazine

Funny you should mention Yours. Mum gets it.
