    I find myself watching these guys quite a bit at the moment.

    Guess I'm regressing a bit to my childhood when I can recall watching their Christmas TV shows each holiday season. I enjoyed their humour (and still
    do). It's sad that Eric passed away so young but his health had not been good for some time and I suspect he could never really say no to people who asked him to perform.

    I think after all the stress and ups and downs of this year finding something to make you smile is a blessing during harder times.

    I hope you can find your own version of Eric and Ernie to unwind to as I do.

    There are some Two Ronnies sketches that I always laugh at. The "four candles" one is a total classic. The Dick Emery one too. I always remember when I had a sleep over at my grandmothers, she would watch it and the Phantom Raspberry Blower of Old London Town or something like that, but The Driving Test is also a classic.
