Childhood memories
Prompt: Are your familiar with Hopalong Cassidy? If not, what westerns have you seen or read? Have you tried your hand at writing westerns?

Yes, Hopalong played a big part in my childhood. In England there used to be special screenings of movies for kids on a Saturday afternoon at the local cinema. I used to go with my two brothers. It used to cost sixpence to get in. There’d be all sorts of shenanigans to try to get in for free and then the sixpence could be spent on sweets or ice cream.
There was always a Western Movie playing. Hopalong Cassidy was a huge favourite and of course his horse. I thought it was Silver but that was The Lone Ranger, then I thought Trigger but that was Roy Rogers’ horse.
I even wrote a story which included two little boys watching Hopalong at the movies —
