31 December, 1985, brought the closing of an era. After 35 years, Springbok Radio, our very first commercial radio station, closed it’s doors. If you don’t remember it then I can guarantee your parents will go all misty eyed at the mention of it. Give it a try. And then tell them they can access the old shows, online, anytime they want. They’ll lose their minds, believe me – mine did.
