Happy Birthday Aunty Beeb

83 and still going strong. Suit and tie never hid your wild side:



Between you and me, I never trusted Looby-Loo.

Looby Loo, eh? Strange, staring eyes.

Not as bad as Little Weed in the Flowerpot Men, though. She was the stuff of nightmare...

Looby-Loo's long term pretense of catatonic coma was so sub. I looked forward to her having adventures when Teddy and AP were gone, but she never did. She just pootled about and then hid until all the boys were bundled in the toybox on top of her. Freaky.

Weed, on the other hand, was power.

All the signs are there...

Weed was creepy.

Sitting there staring manically at anything and everything, tempting the boys into taking refuge in pot...

Certainly explains those conversations...

Looby-Loo and Teddy were fine ... the gender-confused Andy Pandy always used to creep the shit out of me though. My least favourite children's show ever ... I remember always being disappointed at nursery school when it was on.

I liked the trippy ones; Mary, Mungo and Midge, Pogles Wood and of course, Mr Ben.

Bagpuss. Best children's tv programme then, now and forever.

You know, Bagpuss never captured me. I think I was growing out of such things by then. Now I suspect I'm growing back into them:-)
