Always been a big fan of the delusional greatman, inexplicably cut off in his prime by penny pinching Beeb. Funnily enough when anyone mentions trouser fire I think of this… https://youtu.be/A2sMVeDG7QI?si=RXz9J9uubhcIhJ1K

Agree with Dan about the radio shows but the tv series are well worth checking out on Prime or Netflix I…[Read more]

If you do want to check Count Arthur Strong out, it’s the radio shows that are comedy gold – the TV ones don’t quite catch it to the same degree. Understand this may be a bit difficult for most of you unfortunately.

Mention ice cream (vans) and I always think of this. Comedy genius. There is bit later in the show (which I can’t find on YouTube) where there is a car chase involving the ice-cream van. The ice-cream jingle is playing and as the van speeds up, so does the jingle. I almost died laughing as the van was hurtling round the streets with the jingle…[Read more]

I reckon if Dave Prowse had done those road safety adverts as Darth Vader they would’ve been more effective.Zapping kids with his lightsabre who run across roads without looking would get my attention as a six year old.

Did anyone, ever, learn the Green Cross Code?  I mean anybody?

Switching to a different kind of Test Match…

Australia were just thrashed by India (in Australia)

This just after India themselves were thrashed by New Zealand (in India)

Makes you wonder what might happen to England against New Zealand later this week.

I see what you did there. Your son’s glasses are a metaphor for the Nest. Or the other way round. It was 1975 when The Green Cross Code Man (a.k.a. Dave Prowse, a.k.a Darth Vadar) kicked Tufty’s butt real good. A Sith Lord versus a squirrel? Only one winner.

Took the boy for what seems like his monthly visit to Specsavers today for repairs.He goes through more glasses than a clumsy waitress.His current pair were being held together with superglue and gaffa tape.My wife said he was starting to look like a young Jack Duckworth.(One for the kids there).

Pretty sure Tufty had a cameo in Life on Mars.

I remember him from the 1970s and Willy Weasel getting knocked down when running across the road for an icecream.

Another wretched Dr Who episode (12-7). I’m dreading them now but I’ve come so far I’ve got to try to make it to the end. Only about 12 episodes to go.  I must have got through at least 130 so far.

Had to binge watch some stuff on Netflix to recover. The Queen’s Gambit was good.

Surely surely surely any Google search involving squirrels and road safety would have thrown up The Tufty Club. @hunnybunny, you must remember Tufty.

Do you want this site to close down completely @catsnbirds?
