There's this version of the Gruffalo that I stuck on from YouTube the other day and the fox has a really thick scouse accent. I liked it! I think I'm going to do that from now on..

My fox is my version of a sly cockney. Owl is Stephen Fry, Snake is nondescript snakey voice. I reserve the scouse for Barry the Fish with Fingers.

Not a patch on Enid Blyton.  Ahh, the good old fashioned racism.

No Snail and Whale love?

My two year old loves Snail and the Whale, and I reckon it's one of the better Donaldson efforts. I quite like Zog too.

Scarecrow's wedding is where it's at. It has smoking in it and everything. Second place is stick man.

Gruffalo can suck a fat one.

My little lad absolutely loves Highway Rat. The TV adaption of Snail and the Whale is brilliant, but the book is crap. 

We went on the Gruffalo walk at Sherwood Pines the other week.

You know the bit where you turn the page in Room On The Broom and the dragon appears?

I fucking nailed the drama of that over the years. My kids knew what was coming, but still shit themselves as I dramatically turned the page and ramped up the bass in my voice and went full Blessed.

The absolute marks.

Well, I guess we're doing this as I have to wait here whilst some stuff downloads for work. The official code for all the Julia Donaldson & Axel Scheffler collaborations (not including the Acorn Wood ones for younger kids):

Room on the broom, Tabby Mc Tat, Stick Man, smartest giant in town, Monkey puzzle, Gruffalo, Snail & the Whale, Charlie Cook's favourite book, Superworm, Squash & a Squeeze, Tiddler, gruffalos child, Zog, Highway Rat

 

(I haven't read the sequel to Zog or Scarecrow Wedding, and had actually never even heard of The Ugly Five until just now looking at wiki)

Yeah it's not clear from where I split this conversation out but that's what started this; looking at the Christmas tv listings. Gutted. What are channel 4 up to this year? Tiger who came to tea was brilliant; not even Robbie could ruin it.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but this year's TV adaption, is Zog and the Flying Doctors. Crap.

Gadabout's a prick.

After multiple crash landings that nobody gives a shit about, Zog even says that he's exhausted and Gadabout doesn't even acknowledge him.
