page three-oh-two
with your straightforward ways
you take me back
to those halcyon days
when life was simple
and the text was too
in headline white
or main copy blue.
as i mulled over breakfast
punching keys on the remote
watching the numbers
upwards they'd float
until the moment of reckoning
appeared before me
in my morning haze
I'd typed in page two-oh-three.
Ah, I remember these days. My most memorable Ceefax moment was when I was checking the Arsenal v Charlton score at Highbury in 2003 I think. Anyway, I got the biggest surprise to see a 2-4 final score win to Charlton. Great times.
