You are young at heart when...

Somewhere in the dark and nasty regions, where nobody goes, stands an ancient castle. Deep within this dank and uninviting place lives Berk...

Certainly is Nev, Willy Rushton at his absoloute best.

13. You still pick up conkers even though you have no intention of playing conkers and then you wonder what to do with them.

My OH was delighted to find 2 conker trees in our garden this autumn, and spent a happy half-hour or so outside collecting conkers in a little bucket.
He then brought them back inside to show me.

Honestly, you'd think he was about 7!!

Lost count.....I think we're on 27.

28. When you buy a particular brand of cereal JUST to get the free toy

Nev - my total fave Trap door episode was the one where Rog escaped from the Trap door and Berk gets really annoyed with him and anounces - large club in hand "Its bonkin' time!! 1,2,3,4 can't remember the rest!!" Creases me up every time!!!


If you like Trap Door you'll probably also like "Stop It and Tidy Up". The classic there was that you must not touch a naughty or you'll catch naughty pox and the only cure is a good sit down!!!

Hhhmmmmm - think I may have a strange sense of humour as well as being a big kid at heart!!!

And i loved trap door too, got the recipe book somewhere..

[Jarmara]

your young at heart when....
you see miffy the rabbit and hello kitty under wear in the kiddies clothes section and whistfully think isn't it sad that they don't doit in grown up sizes!

[Masco&Bongo]

I can remember quite a lot of the names from Stoppit & Tidyup

Including:
The Big Bad I Said No
Go and Play (with his favourite toy)
Bee-have and Bee-quiet
Brush Your Teeth

Oh no, I do that!! I got a lovely pink Miffy mug for my birthday from a friend (it was in a lovely tin and everything)

[Wombat]

I haven't seen "stop and tidy up" but I LOVE the trap door. My favourite was when there was something coming out of the trap door and Burk looks around says "ahh little Drut", picks him up and flings him at it!

Cracks me up - never saw the bonking time one but sounds pretty good


BUUUUURRRRK! FEEEEEED MEEEEEE!

Tom

Yeah yeah yeah!

Don't know what everyone is going on about in most of this thread, don't know if it makes me too old or too young!

[Boots]

I'm with you M3.

These folks are nuts.

....No idea what they're on about...

Are they being rude to folks from Berkshire?

[the.fee.fairy]

i was a stopit and tidyup fan too. In fact, mum and i were talking about it the other day, and she was telling me that they were probably the most difficult books she had to read me at bedtime!!

I lost this thread completely by the end of page one. I've absolutley no idea what people are talking about here. I think I may have found the foreign language section of the forum - it looks like English, but...
