Waiting to hear someone mention 'Happy Go Lucky Greg'! He was our favourite anouncer in the 50's. I met him briefly in Poona, towards the end of the 50s, and he hinted that he had made a quick exit out of Ceylon, for political reasons! Can anyone throw some light on this?

"Happy go lucky Greg" was also the announcer of the request programme {happy birthday messages and other greetings} which was very popular. I have a photo of him with family friends when he visited Bangalore mid fifties. Radio Ceylon was the only programme we were able to tune in to which broadcast popular English music. Reception was not always good with the multi-valve short wave set (Murphy) and aerial from the tree tops. Pat in NZ
