I was in the OVALTEENIES in the 1930's with my Brother and Sister. I am now 93 my sister is 90, my Brother passed away several years ago. I still have fond memories of those years
You were absolutely awesome, I so love the music of the 1930s, I hope pray you are well, I simply love your wonderful song, I wish I had a full record of your beautiful music. Thanks
clarence wright is my great uncle, the man singing the ovaltineys he also was in itma war time comedy show and film and radio broadcast, its quite touching to listen to, as never heard him sing before, sadley he died of cancer at 82 , he was a lovely man ...
There was an Australian version of the Ovaltiney's Club on 3DB Melbourne around 1947-48 which featured the 12 min. serial 'The Sea Rover.' The Sea Rover and Black Beard the pirate and the respective crews in times of crises,, paused for a refreshing drink of Oveltine - never a pot of rum passed their lips1 Each episode was condensed into a comic strip in the following Saturdays 'Melbourne Argus.' None of the episodes appear to have survived.
I was a OL member when aged 6. (I guess I still am as I don't ever recall resigning 🤔). As a youngster I never missed an episode of the radio program, which was broadcast (a fully Australian version) each Sunday. NOTE: The following information is for bonafide Ovaltiney members only. The Ovaltineys secret message heard here can be decoded if one keeps in mind it was known as the ‘even number code’. Therefore 2=A, 4=B, 6=C, 8=D, etc.

It often had very hopeful melodies and lyrics - which ran counter to the reality of the 1930's economic depression. The soundtrack to _Pennies From Heaven_ also typifies The British Dance Band era.

I must play this to my mum, who was a member of the League of Ovaltineys as a tot in the 1930s and loved listening to their show on Radio Luxembourg
I was ten years old when this programme was probably shown. Those were the days! Thanks for the memory.
I wish my dad was still alive, he could tell me what the secret code meant! He would have been 97 this July.
